The Alexandra Collection (Grade 3)

The SongLake Books Alexandra Collection includes 240 books:  6 copies each of 40 titles.  These titles have been hand-picked from approved publishers and reorganized into guided reading sets for classrooms, Title I, and new federal programs such as RTI, i3, et al.  They are also ideal for bookrooms.

Books in the Alexandra Collection span guided reading levels L–P to meet the varied needs of students found in a typical grade 3 classroom.  Different genres at each level offer you more flexibility in choosing titles of interest to your students.

Six copies of Verna Ardema's hardcover biography, A Bookworm Who Hatched (Level O), and 6 copies of her Why Mosquitoes Buzz In People's Ears are included in this bookset.  Children are eager to read additional Verna Ardema works and try their own hand at writing!

All titles included in this collection can be found in Fountas and Pinnell's Booklist K–8+.  Each collection comes with two lists.  One list is arranged by levels.  The other list is arranged alphabetically.
