I had to because I have 2 students and the publisher does not allow for pages to be copied for use.

Is there a teacher guide for level 4/5? Also, I have an upcoming 5th grader. Should we do 4/5 or 5/6?
A shopper on Jun 6, 2019
BEST ANSWER: You could go either way in terms of choosing 4/5 or 5/6 for your rising 5th grader. I would choose 4/5 if reading and reading skills are challenging for the student and 5/6 is he/she is reading at or above grade level. There is one Teacher Guide for all three levels of Drawn Into the Heart of Reading.
