Level D Guided Reading<br />
Characteristics of Text<br />
Stories at Level D are slightly more complex than at previous levels.<br />
Generally, Level D books have topics that are familiar to most children,<br />
but also include some abstract or unfamiliar ideas. Text layout is still easy<br />
to follow, with both large and small print. Sentences are a little longer than<br />
at Level C. Some are carried over to the next page or several pages and use<br />
a full range of punctuation. There are more compound words,<br />
multisyllabic words, and words with a variety of inflectional endings.<br />
Illustrations are still supportive, but less so than at the previous level,<br />
requiring the reader to pay more attention to print.<br />
