The language arts coordinators at the WV Department of Education put together a list of K-12 language arts and social studies standards that are likely to apply to this web site.
We're making it easy for you to find the right WVCCRS curriculum standard. Click on the writer's name below. A pdf will appear on your screen. You can download it or cut and paste the standards you choose.
Three of the writers write for children. Their readings and conversation contain much material that can also be excellent for high school and higher education teachers. So we have included those three writers in two lists, one for K-5 teachers and one for upper levels.
We have a wonderful group of writers. As always, listen to the material and decide what is age-appropriate for your students.
