Though listed for grades 3-4, this book covers a wide range of abilities. Reading materials are between 1.9 to 4.9. There are more reading stories between 2.0 and 3.5 in all sorts of styles: recipies, non-fiction, fiction with excellent W/H questions. Some are asked as multiple choice and others need a sentence written in response. This series is completely worth buying.

This book is good for the teacher who has multiple levels of ability in the classroom. I searched for this product when I saw a coworker using a book just like this in her classroom to differentiate. I was disappointed when I got this because her book is three times as thick as this one, so I must have ordered the wrong product. However, I will keep this book because it looks like it is a good resource to have!

Purchased this for use with third graders who are struggling readers. With several exceptions, I found the passages to be much Lower in interest and higher in readability than what I anticipated.

I bought this book for my son to keep him brushed up over the summer. I was so happy I made that decision because sure enough, upon entering 3rd grade the following year, this was the exact type of passages and bubble tests that were given weekly in class. In addition, it helped prepare him for the school's standardized testing. If you are unsure of your child's reading comprehension, I would suggest buying this type of resource. We both enjoyed this book.

Very good lessons to help children. They may be simple for the adult, but for those that may have a problem with comprehension, sequencing, etc., it is an excellent source.
