Lesson collections are groups of lessons that are focused on a key topic or interest with a variation of lesson collections available for different grade levels. Teachers have full control over the lessons that their students see and can activate or deactivate lesson collections as needed.

Customers using Wonders and Achieve3000 Literacy can take advantage of paired reading texts! Teachers in grades 2-6 can now use the Wonders lesson collection to connect Achieve3000 Literacy lessons to Wonders reading texts. The alignment document also provides discussion questions to support class conversations and connect the two texts. If you use Wonders and Achieve3000 Literacy in your classroom, be sure to activate the Wonders collection for your class!
