OVERVIEW

New Alberta English Language Arts Resources This list of English language arts resources, Kindergarten to Grade 9, contains resources that have been authorized for use in Alberta schools. Alberta Learning selects and authorizes the best possible instructional materials for the implementation of approved programs of study. The resource authorization categories are basic, authorized teaching or support, and the status is noted for each resource.

Basic learning resources are those student learning resources authorized by Alberta Learning as the most appropriate for addressing the majority of outcomes of the course(s) or substantial components of the course(s); or the most appropriate for meeting general outcomes across two or more grade levels. Support learning resources are those student learning resources authorized by Alberta Learning to assist in addressing some of the outcomes of the course(s) or components of the course(s); or to assist in meeting the outcomes across two or more grade levels. Authorized Teaching resources are those teaching resources identified as the best available resources to support the implementation of programs of study and courses; they may be teacher guides to accompany student resources or teacher professional resources. The authorized teaching guides are listed with the student resources, while the authorized teaching professional resources are listed at the end of the booklet.

These Alberta authorized resources were selected from the English language arts resource list approved by the Western Canadian Protocol (WCP). The WCP review of resources began in fall 1997 and was completed in spring 2001. This list of these new Alberta English language arts resources is organized by grade, Kindergarten to Grade 9. The WCP categories used as organizers are integrated resources, series, book collections, individual student resources, and individual teaching resources.

Note: Alberta Learning strongly recommends that teachers read all selections in the student texts and all activities in the teacher guides prior to using them with students. Careful consideration should be given to the sensitivities of both the student audience and the community.
