Help Your Child Find A "Just-Right" Book
At school, your child's teacher completed assessments to find your child reading level. Sometimes your child wants to still read books that are too easy for them or too hard for them. You can use this website to find a book that is "just-right" for them. Ask your child what their reading level is or contact me for that information and then plug it into this website. Students learn their best when they read books that are at their level.
