Good Afternoon,



At one of our elementary schools (grades 3-5) we take our STAR Reading Data
and provide students with a Lexile range based on their score to choose 1
chapter book from within the range and then they also are able to select
any book of their choosing.



Our district is small, but we had over 90 students STAR data score between
a 0-200 Lexile level, which is lower than some of our past 3rd graders
coming in. The problem is that we have some chapter books within that
level, but not many. Since the level is lower, the chapter book selections
to purchase also seem to be harder to find.



Has anyone found a good resource or had a similar issue? I am going to call
our Follett rep tomorrow to see if I can share the parameters of what we
are looking for to have them create a list for us with titles we don't
already own (thanks titlewise!), but open to other suggestions.



Thanks!

Staci Thompson
