K-5 literacy encompasses reading, writing, listening, speaking and problem solving for a wide range of purposes. As students learn and develop their literacy skills during elementary school, they engage in individual and collaborative work to allow for participation in a literate world. The development of students’ authentic literacies throughout this process are supported with a balanced literacy program and monitored formatively and summatively through assessments.
