Strategic language support for English learners provides integrated support and scaffolds for every lesson, plus five days of additional instruction to develop language skills, all enabling ELs to engage with core instruction.
Teacher Experience
Students’ confidence grows when the challenges they face are the right size. Teachers should be given the tools to find the right fit. Journeys is designed to be that tool.
Simple, flexible instruction allows teachers to shine.
Weekly lesson plans make it easy for teachers to design customized lessons, allowing them to spend more time teaching and less time planning.
A realistic approach to pacing allows teachers to focus on depth and rigor, giving the class more time with each text.
Digital tools, like our Interactive Focus Wall and Teacher eBook, simplify planning and enrich instruction.
Practical, powerful assessments keep teachers informed and students prepared.
A comprehensive assessment system (including weekly tests, benchmark assessments, and unit tests) gives teachers the tools they need to monitor student progress.
The online dashboard gives teachers visibility into the progress of their class, providing the insights they need to develop customized lesson plans.
Tech-enhanced questions like drag-and-drop and multi-select allow students to prepare for high-stakes assessment formats.
Journeys scope and sequences are plans teachers can trust. They provide a pedagogical sequence that’s developmentally appropriate and research-based. That way, as students embark on their literacy journey, a path is being charted for the skills and knowledge they’ll need down the road.

Do you have access to the answer keys for 3rd and 5th grade cold reads? I am wanting to use these as retests for my Special Education students. Thanks in advance for any help you may can offer.
The answer keys are within the books. Click into the book and then go into the “contents” and you will see the answer key there.
Comment: I love the Free Journeys Reading Resource. I wish there are more of these out there.
Question: I can’t seem to find Journeys student ebook grade 3 book 3 for lesson 26-30. would you be able to help me with that, please.
Whatever I have on this site is all I’ve found so far. If I come across it, I will post it and send you the info. In the meantime, have you seen the Journeys activities listed in this post ?
Lessons 26-30 are located in the Reading Adventures Magazine.
Thanks a million Ladies.
Kindly assist where I can find Journeys Ebook grade 4, lesson 26-30. There’s Reader’s Notebook ( teacher’s Edition) for these lessons.
Looking for answers to 6th grade readers notebook
This is good stuff! I’m about to teach a true beginner, a young learner, English as a Foreign Language. Any thoughts or suggestions? Thanks!
I have no experience teaching foreign students. But there are many resources available online, some free. Here’s an article you may find useful with links to resources. Hope it helps: ESL Resources
Do you know how to access the Journeys Grade 5 Program Assessment link from ThinkCentral? I was about to find Grade 4, but I haven’t been able to find Grade 5. Grade 4 looks like this btw: https://www-k6.thinkcentral.com/content/hsp/reading/journeys2017/na/gr4/program_assessments_9780544702066_/index.html
I found this link to intervention assessments for grades K – 6. Hope it helps. Journeys Intervention And here is the general link to Journeys Grade 5 Teacher Resources: Journeys G5 Teacher Resources
Thank you for that link, do you have the same links for grade 1-3 and grade 5-6? How do I find these? I am looking for the weekly assesments and benchmark assesments specifically for each grade.
Is there a Grade 6 Reader’s Notebook Teacher Edition? I see one for all of the other grades but not 6.
I have not been able to find that one yet. Will be happy to add it if I come across one or I’m sent a link.
I am looking for the weekly assesments and benchmark assesments specifically for each grade do you happen to have the links for these? Someone above posted them for 4th grade only.
I can’t get the links to work anymore. The page opens but just spins and spins. Is anyone else having this problem?
Try copying the link and pasting it into a new tab. Sometimes that works.
Hi! Any chance you have found any of the grade 6 projectables? Those would be a great addition to some of these resources! I love that you have the textbook digitally!
I’ve got access to projectables up to grade 5. I’ll keep my eye out for grade 6.

Report Overview
Summary of alignment & usability: journeys | ela, ela k-2, ela 3-5, ela 6-8.
Journeys materials for Kindergarten, Grade 1, and Grade 2 do not meet expectations for alignment. Materials partially meet the expectations for Gateway 1. Materials provide support for foundational skills development, directly teaching skills to build reading, although systematic and explicit instruction in practice is inconsistent. Text quality and rigor is mostly appropriate, and texts are accompanied by text-dependent questions and tasks. The materials do not meet expectations for Gateway 2. Materials partially grow knowledge as some texts are organized around topics; however, sets of cohesive questions and tasks are not consistently text-focused. Year-long supports for building students’ academic vocabulary, for supporting writing development, and for independent reading are inconsistent and may require additional support.
Kindergarten
Text Quality
Building Knowledge
The Journeys instructional materials for grades 3, 4, 5, and 6 do not meet expectations for alignment. Each grade-level partially meets expectations for Gateway 1 and does not meet expectations for Gateway 2. Materials partially support students' increasing writing skills over the course of the school year and do include some progression of focused research projects. Although texts are organized around a theme with some topic organization, the materials do not consistently support building students' knowledge of topics or themes over the course of a school year, and Informational texts are often short and lack engaging, content-area vocabulary. The materials do contain some sets of text-dependent questions and tasks; however, the questions and tasks do not consistently require students to analyze the integration of knowledge and ideas across both individual and multiple texts, and culminating tasks do not consistently promote the building of students’ knowledge of the theme/topic. The year-long vocabulary planning does not ensure that students will interact with and build key academic vocabulary words across texts throughout the year, and grammar and conventions lessons and practice are often not aligned to grade-level standards.

2024 WNBA Draft: First-round grades, full results as Caitlin Clark goes No. 1 to Indiana Fever
The fever earned high marks for their selection of clark, but several other teams had strong drafts as well.
The 2024 WNBA Draft is in the books, and, as expected, the Indiana Fever selected Caitlin Clark with the No. 1 overall pick . She'll get to team up with reigning Rookie of the Year Aliyah Boston, which Clark said "lights your eyes up as a point guard." Together, those two will form the most exciting young duo in the league.
Rounding out the lottery, the Los Angeles Sparks picked Cameron Brink at No. 2, the Chicago Sky went with Kamilla Cardoso at No. 3 and the Sparks took Rickea Jackson when they were back up at No. 4.
Now that all three rounds are complete, here's a look at the full results, along with breakdowns and grades for each first-round pick.
No. 1 overall pick
Indiana Fever: Caitlin Clark -- G, Iowa
No surprise here. Clark has been projected as the No. 1 pick for months, and the Fever made it official on Monday night. The two-time Naismith Player of the Year and all-time leading scorer in Division I history, men or women, Clark is one of the best offensive prospects to ever enter the league. Her 3-point range and off-the-dribble shooting are unlike anything the WNBA has seen, and she's a dynamite playmaker. Off the court, she is a marketing dream and will raise the profile of the Fever and the league as a whole.
No. 2 overall pick
Los Angeles Sparks: Cameron Brink -- C, Stanford
As expected, the Sparks used their first lottery pick on Naismith Defensive Player of the Year Cameron Brink. The 6-foot-4 Stanford product led the country in blocks this season at 3.7 per game, and has the length, mobility and instincts to be a defensive star in the WNBA. She is an elite rim protector both on and off the ball, and will only get better as she gets stronger. If all goes to plan, she will follow in Lisa Leslie, Candace Parker and Nneka Ogwumike's footsteps and be the next elite big in Los Angeles.
No. 3 overall pick
Chicago Sky: Kamilla Cardoso -- C, South Carolina
There were some questions about what the Sky would do here at No. 3. Ultimately, they went with Cardoso, who was named Most Outstanding Player at the Final Four earlier this month after leading South Carolina to the national championship. The 6-foot-7 Brazilian was a dominant paint presence at both ends of the floor at the collegiate level, and even in the WNBA there won't be many players who can match her size. She can be a foundational defensive player.
No. 4 overall pick
Los Angeles Sparks: Rickea Jackson -- F, Tennessee
Everything worked out perfectly for the Sparks, who got their center at No. 2 and were still able to get the best wing in the class in No. 4. Jackson was an elite scorer at Tennessee and should only have an easier time putting the ball in the basket with more space at the professional level. Her athleticism and fluidity with the ball in her hands is rare for a player of her size, and she gives the rebuilding Sparks a go-to perimeter option.
No. 5 overall pick
Dallas Wings: Jacy Sheldon -- G, Ohio State
Wings CEO Greg Bibb said the team would be drafting for need at this point in their timeline, and as such it's no surprise that they went with Sheldon at No. 5. She is an active perimeter defender and an elite catch-and-shoot 3-point threat (51.4% on open attempts this season) who will help address the Wings' biggest needs. Great add for the Wings as they try to build on last season's success.
No. 6 overall pick
Washington Mystics: Aaliyah Edwards -- F, UConn
This was a brutal offseason for the Mystics, who lost Natasha Cloud in free agency and saw Elena Delle Donne step away from the game. Edwards is an exciting addition to help them move forward. She's versatile, efficient, athletic and works hard. Plus, UConn products are always prepared for the WNBA.
No. 7 overall pick
Chicago Sky: Angel Reese -- F/C, LSU
When the Sky traded with the Lynx on Sunday to move up from No. 8 to No. 7, it seemed like Reese was their target. And they did indeed take Reese with their second first-round pick. While Reese's offensive deficiencies are well known, you can develop skills on that side of the ball. What you cannot teach is Reese's relentless approach and instincts as a defender and rebounder. In a vacuum, this is great value, but the fit with Cardoso raises a lot of questions. Namely, why didn't they take Rickea Jackson at No. 3 if they wanted Reese this badly?
No. 8 overall pick
Minnesota Lynx: Alissa Pili -- F, Utah
The Lynx's pick at No. 8 is the first big hinge point of the draft. No one really knew what they would do, especially after trading back. Pili is an extremely talented offensive player who shot 40.4% of her attempts from downtown, including 46.7% on open catch-and-shoot looks. There are real questions about whether she can hold up on the other side of the ball as an undersized forward, however.
No. 9 overall pick
Dallas Wings: Carla Leite -- G, France
No surprise here, as the Wings went with a draft-and-stash pick at No. 9. Bibb was extremely complimentary of Leite during a call with the media earlier this month, calling her an "elite penetrator" who is "really strong in terms of seeing the court." It's unclear when she'll come over to the WNBA, but she is a talented young guard for the future.
No. 10 overall pick
Connecticut Sun: Leila Lacan -- G, France
Lacan is arguably the best guard prospect in this class outside of Clark, but no one was confident about where she would be drafted given her age and the fact that the French federation is not super amenable to the WNBA's schedule. It's unclear when she'll come over, but at this point in the draft it's a wortwhile gamble for the Sun. If everything works out, this could be a huge steal.
No. 11 overall pick
New York Liberty: Marquesha Davis -- F, Ole Miss
The Liberty's biggest weakness last season was perimeter defense, and they hope they've solved it with Davis. She is a terrific athlete who can guard multiple positions, and, perhaps most importantly, gives them some more size on the perimeter. While she does not shoot the ball well at all from the outside, she excels at getting downhill and finishes well at the rim.
No. 12 overall pick
Atlanta Dream: Nyadiew Puoch -- F, Australia
Puoch is known as the "Block Doctor" in her native Australia, where she has already been playing professionally for multiple years. Just 19 years old, she has tremendous potential, particularly on defense thanks to her size and athleticism. She will fit in perfectly with the Dream's defensive-minded culture under Tanisha Wright.

The Kindergarten program is very different than the other grades for the following reasons: They have a 2-week "Welcome to Kindergarten" section where they learn one letter per day until the letter J. They continue with the letter K after the two weeks. Their anchor texts are their Big Books.
