The Mini Matthew Collection (Grade 4)

The SongLake Books Mini Matthew Collection includes 121 books:  6 copies each of 20 paperback titles and one hardcover book.  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 Mini Matthew Collection span guided reading levels P–S where the bulk of instruction occurs in a typical grade 4 classroom.  Different genres at each level offer you more flexibility in choosing titles of interest to your students.

One copy of Jean Fritz's hardcover biography, Surprising Myself (Level O) and 6 copies of her Where Do You Think You're Going, Christopher Columbus? are included in this bookset.  Children are eager to read additional Jean Fritz 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.
