-I have used grade 2 LLI for 3rd grade students and 3rd grade for 4th grade
students. The interest level of the books is high so this does not create an
issue in that way.
I hope this is at least a little helpful. Good luck!

Well said, Suzanne. I've often hesitated to comment for fear of being "off
topic" but it is necessary for students to have decoding skills as a part of
the comprehension process. Some of my students most definitely need this
explicit instruction and, make no mistake, it has made a difference i
writing that they would recommend?
Thank you,

I have a related question for the group...have any of you come across
worthwhile websites for interactive reading for middle school students reading
way below grade level (at first-third grade levels)? It's hard to find
something a little more sophisticated, but yet matches their reading level.

for implementing it at one of those schools. I am a reading specialist and use
