Scholastic Guided Science Readers: Levels E-F (Parent Pack): 12 Fun Nonfiction Books That Are Just Right for New Readers

My granddaughter really wanted to read these books. The pictures are interesting, supporting the text and promoting discussion about animals and their behaviour. Only a couple of sentences on each page, so not too overwhelming for a tired little kid after school. We had a nice time with these books. I'm definitely buying other sets.

I am a public school teacher turned homeschool mom, and I love these books! My 5 year old is reading on an end of first grade level and we have used these books every step of the way. What I love is that my child uses the skills that are taught in these books, and is able to apply them in his other reading. These books are so good to introduce one or two skills/sounds at a time, but continue to spiral in previously taught skills/sounds in later books. I really like these nonfiction books. It’s easy to come across a fiction book that will keep your child’s interest. But non-fiction is typically more of a struggle. However, my son has loved every single book in this set! I am very happy! There’s also a book that comes with this set that has comprehension questions for your child to answer. I try to ask more than what’s given in the comprehension book. But, the comprehension book gives a good base if you might be unsure of where to start or what to ask.

My grade one grandson loves the books

Great products a go to for educators and parents alike! Kids love learning with these little books!

My son is a very picky reader. His kindergarten teacher said that he was a reading level E and I wanted to find him some books that he could read on his own easily. He also LOVES science. These books are a huge hit with him. He can read all of them, (even the F books) relatively easily. We got them yesterday and he has been reading them all day. I woke up to him reading the Chameleons book to his father this morning. I have bought so many level 1 and 2 readers in the past to try to encourage my son to read. He likes the DK dinosaur level readers but hasn't really taken to anything else. These guided readers are much better for young readers in my opinion. The structure is simpler and they encourage younger readers because they are can easily sound out any words that they do not know. There are also not too many words on each page. My son also loves that they are non-fiction. I highly recommend these books. I am so glad that we found them. Also, just to note because I saw other reviewers complain about the binding being thread- ours are bound with staples, not thread. We ordered directly from Amazon and not a third party.
