Introduction & Tips

Welcome to our series of levelled reading workbooks. Each workbook contains several
texts. Each text is followed by exercises designed to reinforce literacy skills including
reading comprehension, vocabulary, spelling and writing.

The books include both fiction and non-fiction passages and explore a wide range of
topics in social studies, nature, history, science and more.

Our readers are “leveled” from A to Z based on factors related to text complexity such
as vocabulary, average word size, sentence lengths, amount of repetitiveness, types of
sentence structures and subject matter complexity.

Early reading levels use simple words, short sentences, big fonts and a lot of repetition.
Each successive level introduces a greater reading challenge. Stories relate to topics
young children are familiar with.

 Level A Reader

Some tips on using our leveled readers

• Review the vocabulary words on the first page of each story with your student.
Ask your child to read these words and talk about what they mean.

• Ask younger students to read the stories out loud and use their finger to point to
words as they read from left to right. Help them as needed.

• Ask younger students to also read the directions of the exercises out loud.
Remind them to use complete sentences when answering.

• Ask older students to look up words they don’t know in a dictionary.

• Point out punctuation; for example, when there is an exclamation mark ask
them to reread the sentence using more enthusiasm.

• Review your student’s work and guide him or her through any answers that are
not correct.

• Discuss the stories, the characters, the topics, the settings, the pictures –
anything about the text to make it more interesting, relevant or fun.

• Monitor your student’s progress and adjust reading levels as needed.

• Keep the reading fun!
