The Ready to Go Guided Reading series offers the essentials of a comprehensive guided reading program: leveled readers that cover high-interest topics, prompts to encourage students to work with the text and text features, discussion guides, and graphic organizers. The readers are separated into three readability levels. The nonfiction texts in each reader focus on fascinating topics that will engage even the most reluctant reader. Adding to student appeal are text features such as colorful photographs, graphic charts, and maps. Various call-out boxes will direct students to apply reading strategies to the texts, such as scanning for meaning or word work. Each reader concludes with a writing prompt.
