Characteristics of Each Level:

Guided Reading Level B contains short vowel sounds and long vowel sounds. Students strengthen their knowledge of sight words as they build phonics skills.

Guided Reading Level D contains words that have phonics patterns that are commonly introduced at the first grade level.

Oh No! This Book Is Way Too Advanced

When it comes to selecting higher reading level books for classroom libraries, many teachers have a problem.

How do you find a high-interest book that is above fourth or fifth grade reading level that is still appropriate for advanced elementary school students?  Many parents and teachers have expressed concern about the mature content of some YA fiction and are unsure what their younger, more advanced readers should read.

Helpful Tips

1.  Read each book before it is added to your classroom library.  This does take some time, but this is the only way to ensure that a book is appropriate for each student.  Guided reading books that are used with students to teach lessons are read before reading lessons.  This is not often the case with books that are added to classroom libraries.

2.  Stick with a few trusted authors.  Authors often follow a particular style and often keep the same characters.  Although it is not always guaranteed, this is a way to increase the chance that a book with be a good fit for your class.

3.  Read reviews.  It is now so much easier to find out what other readers think about a book.  If a book is too socially mature for a student, you will increase your chances of finding out.

Research-Based Resources

Is your resource research-based?  This is a question that I enjoy answering.  

The answer is yes!  Literacy and Math Ideas' resources are developed using research about how students learn, retain information, and build vocabulary knowledge.

Plus...Literacy and Math Ideas goes into the wild (literally) to bring you authentic and high-interest reading passages.  With my camera and sketchbook in hand, I travel to the desert, forest, rain forest, ocean, and more to bring original reading passages.

Many of our passages cover specific themes or topics to help students gain deep knowledge and develop a wide vocabulary.

 

 

Many of the passages contain interesting and unusual facts to build student interest in reading nonfiction.  This supports the research of Robert Marzano that encourages activities that build both background and vocabulary knowledge.
