According to the Common Core State Standards, both qualitative and quantitative scales of text complexity should locate the college- and career-ready reading level as the endpoint of the scale. Lexile ranges have therefore been realigned to match the Common Core Standards’ text complexity grade bands, and reflect the standards’ trajectory of reading comprehension development through the grades. The Common Core State Standards Initiative offers the following overlapping Lexile bands (or Lexile ranges, as defined by Common Core) to place texts within grade bands.

• Provides a basic introduction to Common Core Language Arts standards

“Who wants to learn basic physical concepts from a boring

human? The Dinosaur School series employs dozens of wildly

colored, wide‑eyed, gleefully grinning, computer‑illustrated

dinos to illustrate the most elementary of first lessons. This is all about clarity: the

bright characters cavort across plain white pages, while a brief sentence in large font makes a

single declaration. Both pages in each spread play off each other to highlight the two opposing

concepts. … Occasionally ending with visual glossaries, this is fine

sit‑and‑learn stuff for the tiniest tykes.”

• Emphasizes the importance of planning, including tips on brainstorming and outlining

• Uses relatable topic examples to demonstrate how each type of writing can be completed

• Suggests ways each writing style can be used in classes other than language arts, including social studies and science

“These books introduce language concepts using

common topics to clearly model them. … Children will be drawn to the clean layout and well‑presented subject matter.”


Write Right!As children move into higher grades, they’re asked to do more writing in a variety of styles. Book reports and research papers teach information gathering while opinion papers and essays ask them to make a point and argue it well. Readers will learn the importance of word choice, organization of sentences and paragraphs, and the need for proper grammar in both classroom assignments and creative writing done on their own. Clear explanations and an entertaining style reinforce language arts standards of the Common Core, and fact boxes offer tips that can be used in many subjects’ writing assignments.

• High‑interest subject matter attracts readers of all ages and reading levels

• Graphic organizers facilitate readers’ retention of key information

• Fact boxes offer bonus fun and relevant information

• Dynamic photographs feature animals in their native habitats

“An opening chapter invites readers to imagine themselves as the featured animal, either in fanciful terms (Would you

become an incredible drummer if you were an octopus?) or more fact‑based ones (Your back legs are so weak that you can’t walk) as a sloth. The imagination motif

is reprised periodically, mixed neatly into straight descriptions

of the distinct characteristics of each animal. Full‑page

photographs alongside each page of straightforward text are generally high quality and often

quite effective at highlighting key features and behaviors, such as a toucan’s fruit‑eating technique.”

Animals at RiskWhen many people learn about endangered animals, they feel helpless and think they can do nothing to help them. Readers are motivated to arm themselves with knowledge of creatures on the brink of extinction as they read these engrossing books and perhaps even take action to save them. Readers gain an understanding of how human actions reverberate throughout the animal kingdom and how time is of the essence to change the course of events. Breathtaking photographs and startling facts inspire a newfound respect for many beautiful, and surprisingly fragile, beasts.

The Human BodyThe human body is comprised of numerous vital systems that work together. The circulatory system carries oxygen and nutrients throughout the body and helps eliminate wastes. The nervous system is made up of special cells that gather information about the world around us and transmit signals to body parts. This series takes an in-depth look at these, and four more, body systems—addressing their different parts, their basic functions, diseases that affect them, and ways to keep them healthy. Each book features colorful photographs and detailed diagrams that take readers inside the amazing human body.
