These materials were developed with funding from the Texas Education Agency. The material was designed with the support of many individuals whose names do not appear here, but whose hard work and ideas are represented throughout these resources. The individuals who have contributed to the development include national and state reading experts, researchers, and those who work for the Institute for Public School Initiatives at the University of Texas System, the Vaughn Gross Center for Reading and Language Arts at the University of Texas at Austin, the Children’s Learning Institute at the University of Texas Health Science Center at Houston, the Texas Education Agency, the Texas Institute for Measurement, Evaluation, and Statistics at the University of Houston, and the Education Service Centers.
