Resources
ESLreadingsmart.com provides ESL teachers and student comprehensive resources, including over 100 lessons with accompanying
instructional material written at varied ESL levels, unique newcomers' program for beginning English languages learners, exceptional class
management tools, and the innovative Student Assessment module that allows teachers to track student progress. ESLreadingsmart.com allows
teachers to individualize ESL instruction.
Reading Program
ESLreadingsmart.com is written on three levels of difficulty: Beginner (ESL Level 1), Intermediate (ESL Level 2), and Advanced
(ESL Level 3). Reading levels are aligned to the Lexile Framework for ReadingĀ®, a scientific approach to reading measurement that provides a
common scale for matching reader ability and text difficulty. ESLreadingsmart.com allows educators and parents to quickly estimate expected
reading comprehension, and allows for easy monitoring of progress.
Newcomers' Program
The Newcomers’ Program's thematic design introduces beginning English language learners to basic vocabulary and language
structures intended to facilitate immediate communication ability in English, and progressively develops skills for reading selections in Level
1. It integrates reading, writing, listening, and speaking skills.
Class Management
In order to maintain accurate student data for registered students, new students, and students who have left the program,
teachers can create and modify their class rosters online. Class rosters, User IDs, and passwords can be printed. The ESLreadingsmart.com Class
Management feature provides student data for automatic tracking of students’ online activities. All school and student information is
confidential, and databases are protected with the use of advanced security systems.
Student Assessment
The Student Assessment module offers teachers the capability of producing daily, weekly, or mid-term student reports. These
reports summarize students’ activities while using the web site, and include students' scores on the activities and quizzes. The scores are
grouped according to the title of the selection and the type of activity. Teachers can determine at a glance whether or not students are
performing at their assigned levels. The Student Assessment feature is also protected with a security system for maintaining student
privacy.

ESLreadingsmart.com is aligned with Texas Essential Knowledge and Skilled (TEKS), Sunshire Standards for Language Arts,
California and Ohio standards and Teachers of Other Languages (TESOL) international ESL/ESOL goals. ESLreadingsmart.com is already implemented in
