Teacher-led lessons
Whole-group CLT-aligned materials teachers can present directly.
CLT curriculum
A teacher-led CLT curriculum that builds readiness through verbal and quantitative reasoning.
Develop the reading, grammar, writing, and mathematics skills students need for the Classic Learning Test through regular classroom instruction.
Talk to us“I truly prefer ChalkTalk to what our district uses for the regular school year. The students embrace the program and work AND I have seen better results as well.”
How it works
Five components, one unified instructional approach.
Everything a teacher needs to support CLT verbal reasoning, grammar and writing, and quantitative reasoning without building a separate course.
Small group activities
Group students automatically by performance or manually for discussion and collaborative practice.
Adaptive practice
Give every student a personalized practice path based on placement and ongoing performance.
Mock tests + strategies
Use practice exams modeled on CLT format and timing while building pacing, elimination, and format familiarity.
Reporting
See skill-level reports showing exactly where each student and class stand.
Built for existing pathways
Integrate CLT prep into existing course codes.
ChalkTalk can support CLT preparation within existing course structures. These Florida examples show one approach. For courses in your state, talk to your local representative.
Option A · Deeper instruction
Build CLT preparation into core instruction.
Primary instruction runs 3–5 days per week for 20–45 minutes per day, integrated into existing courses.
Strengthens verbal, writing, and quantitative reasoning through teacher-led lessons, collaborative work, and adaptive practice.
Every implementation includes
- Ready-to-use lesson plans and slides
- Adaptive practice and study videos
- Printables and online activities
- Built-in progress monitoring
- Professional development and data coaching
- Pacing guides
Examples of existing courses ChalkTalk partners have integrated CLT prep into:
MCLA
Connect CLT mathematics preparation to Mathematics for College Liberal Arts topics including functions, geometry, probability, data analysis, and logic.
IR3
Use CLT reading and English preparation to reinforce targeted support in Intensive Reading 3.
IR4
Extend reading intervention through CLT-aligned passages, comprehension, analysis, and English-conventions practice in Intensive Reading 4.
