- the Kindergarten English language arts and reading TEKS and the ELPS;
- effective and systematic early reading instruction, including the five components of phonological awareness, phonics, fluency, vocabulary, and comprehension;
- early writing instruction; and
- differentiated instruction to meet the needs of all learners, including English language learners and students who are struggling with learning to read.
