ELA/Literacy Grade-Level Instructional Materials Evaluation Tool-Quality Review (GIMET-QR)
The GIMET-QR is a tool designed by the Council of the Great City Schools to support educators in evaluating the quality of instructional materials available and making evidence-based selection decisions about the suitability of instructional materials under consideration. The tool is organized into grade-level or grade-band documents and is structured to mirror the Student Achievement Partners’ Instructional Materials Evaluation Toolkit (IMET). The tool includes nine sections: two non-negotiable sections and seven alignment sections. Reviewers read guidance statements for each section and are directed to cite evidence to support their evaluation of instructional materials.
