This is the best site I have found for accessing educational frameworks and curriculum standards in the US as well as around the world. Putnam Valley has organized extensive links and updates regularly. The test measures expository and narrative writing for fourth graders, persuasive and expository writing for eighth and tenth graders. A rubric, a description of writing standards, is used to determine scores from 0 to 6. Students are given 45 minutes in which to plan, write, and edit a draft paper.
All work is done individually.
Extensive materials for Reading, Writing, and Math. Once you are at the grade level you can choose a lesson plan. It will take you to an abstract of that lesson and all the activities included in that lesson. Lessons are formatted in ClarisWorks 4.0.
