Level K Guided Reading<br />
Characteristics of Text<br />
The Level K collection includes longer chapter books with memorable<br />
characters, shorter informational books with technical language and new<br />
concepts, and literary texts with illustrations that enhance meaning. Stories<br />
have multiple episodes related to single plot. Some stories have to do with<br />
times, places, and characters outside children’s experience. Readers will<br />
need to use a variety of strategies to figure out new writing styles. At this<br />
level, most reading will be silent, although teachers will always sample<br />
oral reading or invite children to read aloud for emphasis or enjoyment in<br />
group sessions. It will take more than one sitting for children to read some<br />
of the longer chapter books.<br />
