  • Lessons, Answer Keys, Student Scoring Sheets, and a Survey of the Scientifically- Based Reading Research That Is Foundational to ITRI
    Grade 4 Teacher Guide Developed by the Center for Innovation in Assessment in conjunction with the Indiana Department of Education What’s In This Booklet The Informational Text Reading Inventory (ITRI) was created when the Center for Innovation in Assessment (CIA) observed that students in grade four experience a significant drop in performance in all of their subject areas. CIA researched solutions and identified the critical issue as the students' struggle to apply the reading skills they have learned in earlier grades to their expository textbooks. In grade four, students are expected to read to learn at a far greater extent than in earlier grades. ITRI materials teach students the reading skills they need to understand their content area textbooks. This booklet contains all the information teachers need to use the ITRI materials, including assessments, lessons, answer keys, student scoring sheets, and a survey of the scientifically- based reading research that is foundational to ITRI. Because all ITRI content comes from Indiana's Academic Standards for grade four science, social studies, and English/language arts (E/LA), ITRI materials will enhance the subject matter teachers already teach. Students will always learn the reading skills within the context of their content area curriculum. For a detailed list of all items, please go to the Table of Contents on page iii.
