Learn to Read Leveled Books
First Step to Reading
Reading is one of the most valuable skills that a person can acquire. It is essential that children get started with reading in a positive and successful way. The first step on the road to reading is learning the letter sounds.
Leveled Books
The next things needed are sight words (Dolch words) practice and books at the child’s reading level. Learning to read can be difficult for many children, especially if the proper reading material is not available. It is important that children begin with books that they can really read themselves. Then, as they are ready to do so, they should gradually move to books with more difficult text.
Leveled books are ideal for children who are learning to read. These books begin with very basic reading and progress in small steps so that the student is challenged but not overly frustrated. Leveled books start at Level 1 (Level A) and go on from there. Children usually begin learning to read between the ages of four and six years of age. Some children learn quite quickly and only need to read ten or twenty books at a level before progressing to the next reading level. Some children may need to read 50 or even 100 books at a level before they are ready to move on. All children should begin reading at Level 1 (Level A) and move up the levels as they are ready. See the subsection entitled Is This Book Too Difficult? for more information on how to know whether a book is too easy or too difficult for your child.
