Hi all,
Barb, you are correct that there are no "National Standards". Most states
have adopted, adapted, or developed their own set of standards.
Bryan-
In beginning reading, you can see what EFF learned from research and data
from the field: http://eff.cls.utk.edu/assessment/read5.htm
I'd also recommend looking at some of the information available on Reading
from other states at OVAE's Standards Warehouse:
http://www.adultedcontentstandards.org/Source/GetStandard.asp
You may also want to post your question to the Adult Education Content
Standards Discussion List (contentstandards at dev.nifl.gov). Members of that
list may be able to give you further information.

Thanks, Becky.
Does anyone else have suggestions for Bryan? There are not national
standards as far as I know; do any states have standards for beginning
reading?
What do the EFF standards say?

Barbara (and anyone else),
Do you have any national standards for beginning reading? You know,
things
that speak of phonetic awareness, decoding strategies, fluency levels,
etc?
