Dive Brief:

• Most teachers have not overhauled reading instruction to deal with Common Core demands, the Thomas B. Fordham Institute says in a report.
• Common Core standards call for teachers to assign readings based on the reading level of a student's school year, not a student's actual abilities.
• The survey found that 64% of elementary teachers still assign books based on individual abilities.

Dive Insight:

This survey talked to 1,154 reading or English language arts teachers from elementary to high school last year. The next survey in 2015 will give a better idea of Common Core progress, the report's authors say.
