Meet Common Core State Standards with Leveled Readers from Sundance/Newbridge!- Provide your struggling middle school students with access to informational texts at multiple reading levels.
- Integrate age-appropriate and instruction-appropriate social studies and science leveled books into your literacy lessons.
- Motivate your students to succeed!
The Common Core State Standards for Literacy in History/Social Studies, Science, and Technical subjects expect students to apply their literacy skills to content-related informational texts. These requirements prove difficult to students who are reading below grade level or who may be reluctant readers. Because of the limitations on their ability to access the text, students also struggle with thinking critically and forming opinions about what they have read. Leveled books allow students to read grade-appropriate topics at their own level. Reading fiction and nonfiction texts written with manageable vocabulary and concise sentences allow students to access the content without becoming overwhelmed. This enables students to improve their comprehension skills and to gradually increase their reading level over time to become more proficient readers.
