1. Book Wizard- If you are ever wondering about the level of a book that they have for sale or one that you already have at home, you can type the title of the book and Book Wizard can give you the grade level, guided reading level, or DRA number. I use it all the time to help students in the classroom who are wondering about the level of book they are reading.
2. Ordering online- When you make an order online, you get a coupon for a $5 book towards a future book order and the classroom bets $3 in free books. These add up quickly so I can purchase more books for our classroom library. Click here to order online. My parent code FLZP8. You'll find it super easy to order online.
3. Find books by level- This is a great resource! Type in your child's guided reading level (they should know this) and see what books Scholastic has to offer. You can order from any catalog, it doesn't necessarily have to be the ones that I send home.
4. Activities- Under the Parents link, there are a ton of activities and craft ideas. They even have pages you can print off to color or reinforce reading and writing skills.
5. The Stacks- under the For Kids link, there is a site called "The Stacks for Kids" that has great literacy games.
