In a classroom setting, our leveled books can be used in small group instruction, called Guided Reading. The purpose of Guided Reading is to support students in reading at their instructional level, at which a child is not yet able to read independently but has enough background knowledge and skills to read at that level with some support from the teacher.

 

Thus, when our books are used in Guided Reading groups, a book introduction from the teacher is necessary. Here, the teacher gives the child information and teaching points that they will need to be able to read the book.

 

Here are some introductions for Level A books from our founder, Teacher Chona Colayco-Lagoutte. The content of each video gives the child the support they will need to be able to read the corresponding book with comprehension and later on, independently.
