Accelerate Measurable Skill Gains on TABE 13 & 14 + CASAS GOALS

ABE ESSENTIALS WORKBOOKS OVERVIEW
Our ABE Essentials Workbooks combine two key instructional strategies needed for success: print and digital learning. This series contains over 250 lessons that connect seamlessly to powerful mobile lessons, quizzes, and practice tests using QR code technology. A built-in Learning Management System (LMS) gives teachers the diagnostic data needed to determine readiness and pinpoint instruction for each student.
- Covers TABE 13 & 14 Math, Reading, and Language Levels E, M, D, and A
- Covers CASAS Math GOALS Levels A, B, C, D, and E
- Covers CASAS Reading GOALS Levels B, C, and D

EFFECTIVE WORKBOOK INSTRUCTION
Each lesson in our ABE Essentials Workbooks series uses a simple 3-step approach to help students learn faster and more effectively.
- Connect: Each lesson starts by connecting a specific concept to a real-life situation, so students understand why they're learning what they're learning.
- Explain: Once the concept has been presented in an easy-to-understand manner, it is then explained in detail.
- Practice: Each lesson ends with a set of practice questions to be sure the student fully understands what they just learned.

POWERFUL MOBILE LESSONS
Through the use of QR codes, students are seamlessly connected to Virtual Tutor video instruction using their smartphone or tablet. The virtual tutor video instruction provides access to online lessons and practice tests. Each lesson is interactive, fun, and provides instant feedback, always being sure to explain the correct answer. This combination of print + mobile learning creates a powerful tool to help accelerate student gains on their TABE 13 & 14 tests or CASAS GOALS assessments.

DIAGNOSTIC DATA FOR TEACHERS
Never before has it been possible to get critical diagnostic data from print material. Using our built-in Learning Management System, teachers can run a report giving them much needed data to determine readiness and pinpoint instructional strategies for each student. In one easy-to-read report, teachers can see:
- student learning time
- which lessons have been opened
- number of quizzes passed
- practice test results

FREE HANDBOOKS TO TARGET EXACT SKILLS NEEDED
Increase WIOA funding with any of our five Measurable Skill Gains Accelerator handbooks. These targeted pacing guides were designed to accelerate student gains through Educational Functioning Levels. Each handbook gives instructors an easy-to-follow map for designing targeted lesson plans to optimize gains in the Educational Functioning Levels and their alignment to CASAS GOALS.
