1 Zip Zoom English With professional development from Scholastic Red Aligns to Zip Zoom English is a research-based multimedia program designed for English-language learners (ELLs) in kindergarten through third grade. The following chart details how Zip Zoom English, with professional development support from Scholastic RED, addresses these Reading First criteria* and can enrich and strengthen a comprehensive reading program: Instructional Assessments Instructional Programs and Strategies Instructional Materials Access to Print Materials Instructional Leadership Professional Development Scholastic Products Instructional Assessments Zip Zoom English Valid and reliable screening, diagnostic, and classroom-based assessments Zip Zoom English contains evaluation tools that provide instructors and staff with information they can use to determine student achievement gains. A placement assessment for initial placement Progress Monitoring Assessments which provide formal, periodic checks A Teacher Manager that provides data-driven reports about student assessment scores Outcomes Assessments that provide mid- and endof-level learning snapshots of English-language learners beginning the transition to English The software management system allows teachers to review and print Ongoing Progress Monitoring Reports for each student. The software also contains a Message Center where messages and alerts guide teachers and keep them informed of student progress. Assessments that are aligned with the instructional program and that measure progress in the five essential elements of reading instruction (phonemic awareness, phonics, vocabulary, fluency, and comprehension) Formal and informal assessments in Zip Zoom English provide support which helps make instructional decisions as students progress through the lessons on each level. An assessment can be made to identify patterns and trends in a child s progress and to adjust instruction and tailor practice. After each even-numbered lesson, children receive a formal assessment on the software. The assessment provides periodic checks on phonology, oral vocabulary, and critical words. In addition, each lesson provides learning goals for language, literacy and content knowledge. During Teacher- Led instruction, the Progress-Monitoring checklists can be used to gather informal data about each student s learning and progress. *From the Guidance for the Reading First Program and the for Review of State Applications, United States Department of Education June

2 Zip Zoom English Alignment to Instructional Programs and Strategies/ Instructional Materials Instructional strategies and programs based on scientifically based reading research Scholastic Products Zip Zoom English Zip Zoom English is a research-based program that combines technology with texts designed for Englishlanguage learners in kindergarten through third grade. In 1999, the Pacific Resources for Education and Learning (PREL) received a five-year grant from the US Department of Education to develop NEARStar: Network for English Language Acquisition and Reading, A Star Schools Project. The primary goal was to develop software to address the English language acquisition and literacy needs of young English-language learners. In , PREL tested its first NEARStar prototype at developmental school sites. It then expanded to 23 sites in 12 states, serving approximately 3,100 English-language learners in kindergarten through third grade. In WestEd conducted a two-year independent research study with 658 Englishlanguage learners in kindergarten through second grade to determine NEARStar s effectiveness in developing English-language learners language and literacy skills. The study revealed a consistent trend of improved phonemic awareness, phonics, and sight word recognition for English-language learners using NEARstar. In 2004, English-language learners and their teachers responded positively to a formative evaluation of NEARStar conducted by the Education Development Center/Center for Children and Technology (CCT). Based on feedback from CCT and subsequent Teacher Round Tables, Scholastic expanded the authorship team to include Dr Elfrieda Hiebert, Dr. Maria Carlo, Dr. Diane August, and Chauncey Veatch, as well as made modifications to the scope and sequence, instructional path, oral vocabulary, assessments and teacher management system.

3 Zip Zoom English Alignment to Instructional strategies and programs that provide explicit and systematic instruction in the five essential components of reading: Phonemic awareness Phonics Vocabulary Fluency Comprehension Scholastic Products Research-based Zip Zoom English is scientifically proven to accelerate oral language, vocabulary, sight word recognition and fluency Phonemic Awareness Songs and chants reinforce specific sounds and key phonological and phonemic awareness tasks. Children learn, repeat, and choose words targeted for initial vowel and consonant sounds, covering all 26 letters of the alphabet. Phonics Children develop sound and letter knowledge while building and spelling new words and using them in sentences. Children progress to decoding words that include consonants, digraphs, diphthongs, blends, variant vowels, and advanced phonic elements. Vocabulary Children build content knowledge and practice vocabulary through animated lessons. The Read-Aloud Library and the Critical-Word Readers provide practice with vocabulary including high-frequency, high-meaning, and phonetically regular words. Fluency Students listen to modeled readings from a selection of classic and non-fiction titles in a variety of topics and genres. Students develop and improve fluency through echo reading, choral reading, partner reading, and repetition. Comprehension Teachers preview books to draw on children s prior knowledge, discuss context clues, and encourage children to picture and describe what they read. Students develop comprehension strategies such as making predictions, rereading, summarizing, sequence of events, story structure, etc. June

4 Zip Zoom English Alignment to Materials and programs that provide explicit instructional strategies, have a coordinated instructional sequence, and offer ample practice opportunities Scholastic Products Zip Zoom English provides instructional, review, and practice activities that help students develop critical language and reading skills. The program is available in Levels 1-3 to flexibly meet the needs of students in Grades K-3. The ten lessons in each level follow this format: Sessions 1 and 2 Teachers pre-teach content-area vocabulary. Teachers introduce and read a story from the Read- Aloud Library, modeling language and comprehension skills, such as, rereading, clarifying, summarizing, and predicting. Teachers ask open-ended questions that stimulate children to think and talk about the story. These questions are designed to prompt long answers, text-related discussion, and analytical thinking that are proven critical to comprehension and word acquisition. Sessions 3 and 4 Lessons provide multiple exposure to content vocabulary through, interactive class discussions, word webs, writing activities, and pictures. The Word & Picture Book provides a colorful, contextualized setting for reinforcing the targeted vocabulary. Language usage is expanded through using a routine, modeling and partner practice. Sessions 5 and 6 Phonemic Awareness and phonics skills are taught using the Song & Chant Poster Book and Phonemic Awareness Songs & Rhymes book. Students participate in writing and illustration activities which help make connections and practice additional skills, such as concepts of print. Sessions 7 and 8 Lessons provide students the opportunity to bring together the vocabulary, phonemic awareness, and phonics skills, which allow them to decode and read the Critical-Word Readers. Students do repeated readings of the stories independently or with a partner to build fluency. Sessions 9 and 10 The final sessions review and reinforce the new skills and vocabulary to prepare children for assessments. Students revisit one or more of the following components: Read-Aloud book, Word & Picture Book, and the Critical-Word Readers Students take a formalized assessment from the software after every even-numbered lesson. June
