Like the standards themselves, Journeys Common Core reflects an integrated model of literacy where instruction and application in the four strands—Reading, Writing, Speaking & Listening, and Language—are linked to the complex texts and topics with which students engage. Literacy by Design® incorporates the gradual release of responsibility model—the underlying principle of a balanced literacy approach—into the instructional design for reading and writing. The strategic design of the program ensures Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) for every student by teaching grade-level skills along with developmental skills—all within a structure that supports a balanced literacy model of instruction.
