Is it a Just Right Book?

Many of us have talked at conference time about finding out if books you have at home are just right for you child.  You might try...

Please feel free to access this scholastic site, type in the title, click on the correct book, then look under GRL (Guided Reading Level).  You child should know what letter or band of letters they are working.  Or, you could shoot me an email to confirm.


Portland Public Schools has a database that's organized by titles or level.  You might like to go to the public or school library on a mission with titles in hand...(these are organized by Reading Recovery Level)

Here's how it works...different reading programs have different ways of tagging books. (same idea)

Reading Recovery     GRL
8                                   E
10                                 F
12                                 G
14                                 H
16                                  I
18                                  J

Questions?  Please ask.
