Finding Books for Your Child's Reading Level
A friend of mine recently sent me a link to a useful web site. This site sorts books according to reading level. I know that libraries do the same thing; they sort books by reading level in their book shelves. However, for me, it's nice to see a list. That way, insteading of walking down an aisle of books with my head turned sideways, I can use the library's County Cat system to request books for my kids. This is sometimes a lot easier.
Here is a list of books, according to reading level.
- Kindergarten (A,B, and C level books)
- First Grade (Levels C through I books)
- Second Grade (Levels H through M books)
- Third Grade (Levels L through P books)
- Fourth Grade (Levels O through T books)
- Fifth Grade (Levels S through W books)
- Sixth Grade and Up (Levels V through Z)
I am relieved that say that - as a mom and an adult - I can successfully read to level Z. Level Z is Treasure Island and I read that book a long, long, long time ago.
... Therefore, according to this reading list, I am at least as smart as a sixth grader.
