Kindergarten through 4th Grade Roadmaps for Families to Understand Ohio’s 3rd Grade Reading Guarantee

If your child’s reading skills are not on track, your child will receive extra reading help in school.

This guide from the Ohio Department of Education provides you with questions to ask your child’s teachers Kindergarten – Grade 4. In the guide, there is a one page roadmap for each grade. The road maps show when schools will check your child’s reading progress, how the school might communicate with your family, and information about what supports the school will provide for your child.
