It specifies student expectations for oral language discourse, instruction-following, and persuasive speaking; uses print or digital resources to clarify advanced vocabulary, including figurative language and word choice; supports independent reading across sustained periods; and strengthens comprehension through metacognitive strategies, text evidence, inferences, theme and central-idea analysis.","IXL Skill Plan  \nTexas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS): English IV  \nUse IXL's interactive skill plan to get up-to-date skill alignments, assign skills to your students, and track progress.  \n[www.ixl.com/ela/ski](www.ixl.com/ela/ski)ll-plans/texas-essential-knowledge-and-skills-grade-12  \nVisit [IXL.com](IXL.com) for more information IXL Learning © 2026  \nTexas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) -12th grade  \n1-3 | Developing and sustaining foundational language skills  \n\n| 1 Listening, speaking, discussion, and thinking--oral language.
