Language Arts - Grade K

Language Arts

The Tennessee English Language Arts Curriculum Framework for Kindergarten through Grade 12 was adopted by the State Board of Education on December 5, 1996. "The framework includes the Content Strands and Learning Expectations necessary to insure K-12 Tennessee students develop the language skills needed to succeed in school, in the workplace, and in their lives."

The Tennessee Comprehensive Assessment Program (TCAP) has been developed by the Tennessee State Department of Education to measure student competency in essential skills in the area of Language Arts.

Grade K

The Terra Nova Complete Battery assesses students in Kindergarten (Level 10).

The Tennessee Language Arts Curriculum Standards provide standards, performance indicators, and accomplishments for students in kindergarten.
