National Geographic Learning Transforms the K-5 Reading Market with Reach for Reading; a Common Core Reading Program that Helps Students Learn to Read, While Reading to Learn
“We are excited to introduce this innovative new program into the K-5 reading market,” said Vincent Grosso, vice president, National Geographic Learning. “Common Core Standards require that reading instruction contains a balance of literary and informational texts, but recent studies have shown that over 75% of titles used for reading were narrative. With Reach for Reading, we are incorporating content and imagery from National Geographic to help prepare children for the world of informational texts. Students will be reading about animals, places and other topics, while seeing vivid photos and labeled diagrams that correspond with the text, which results in a much more engaging experience. National Geographic’s content and Explorers are world-renowned, and provide an unmatched learning experience.”
