Genre Immersion Built on the Common Core State Standards
Reading and Writing Workshop
Genre Studies are built on the Common Core State Standards and are intended as an immersion in those literary genres that students are expected to master for college readiness.
Text Complexity and Genre Exposure
Students read from one targeted genre in literature and from a nonfiction companion collection, as they research and build the background knowledge required to write both an original story in the literary genre and a persuasive essay about the genre.
Leveled Texts to Reach Every Student
Genre Studies collections are built to include titles at a range of reading levels. Each module includes 150 titles in the literary genre, and 100 titles of informational text, across 5-6 reading levels.
- Built on the Common Core State Standards

- Genre selections handpicked from more than 250 publishers
