Leveled books
Written to help learners build fundamental literacy skills, leveled books can help ELL students grow through colorful and engaging stories at appropriate levels of difficulty. Education.com’s leveled books are a collection of the same stories written at various reading levels, from PreK to 2nd grade.
If a student is struggling with a book, reading the same story at an earlier level can help them understand it better. On the flip side, advanced levels provide learners with an opportunity to sharpen their reading and comprehension skills.
Additionally, every leveled book has guided audio support to help readers decode new vocabulary and practice pronunciation!
