The recommended target goal is for students to read 4-6 guides during the school year. Answers are in the back and can be easily removed. Each guide includes Notes to the Instructor, mini author biographies, and background information. You may be working with a range of students all from one guide, and that’s okay! Each student will do what they are developmentally capable of accomplishing. It is easy to read just for fun, yet adding a literature guide helps to provide a guided reading experience promoting deeper thought and critical thinking. ~Rebecca
