Sam chose an independent-level book to read and we ordered it today, with the understanding that non-fiction pieces at instructional level will accompany the book. Additionally, we introduced two new books and found that one was too sad and the second is a bit too high level content-wise for her. We will read through the ordered book while working to find the right fit: a novel at her instructional level that is high-interest. We read aloud and searched the library today. She also researched for quick facts on Peru to accompany the book we ordered.
