Our Partnership With the Reading & Writing Project Reading Instruction Program
Kaeden Publishing is pleased to have 22 of our titles selected for use with the Reading & Writing Project’s Reading Instruction Program for use in the reading assessment for K-2. The 2017-2018 New York City Measures of Student Learning Assessments (MoSL) are now using these 22 titles for the Beginning of the Year (BOY) and End of the Year (EOY) assessments.
We have provided assessment books for the RWP Reading Instruction Program since 2015. The original collection was revised in 2020 and we added a Spanish version of the collection in 2021.
You will find one set of A–K Running Records that correspond to books published by Kaeden. Two titles are provided for each reading level. The Running Record assessments can be used for placement assessments as well as for benchmark reading assessments. It is recommended that the student read from the books rather than the text of the Running Record.
