My Project

Our school is in the process of switching from using leveled readers to decodable books. In the spring we cleaned out our library to ensure that old and damaged books were weeded out and then we sorted our books by phonics knowledge needed to read these books.

We found that books we had been giving to our newest readers were expecting students to have phonics knowledge not taught until the middle to end of first grade.

These new books we are requesting follow along with our curriculum. Students will be seeing only words and concepts that they have been taught. This even includes a set of wordless picture books for our English language learners to tell the story and participate in reading a book.
