Preschool-3rd Grade Reading Levels

 

What We're Looking For:

Relatable

Books should not focus too heavily on American culture and customs.

Books should present topics that are universal.

We are looking to collect books that children in Dwenase can relate to or learn from. These books might include topics that are relevant to them or activities that they can relate to.

Interactive

We would like books with artistic fun elements to them as well.

We would like books that are easy to read with very simple sentences.

Books with pop-up elements, scratch and sniff, and other exciting elements.

Reading Level

Books shouldn't be so word heavy but should include pictures in the story.

Books with simple easy to read sentences.

Books shouldn't contain chapters

Educational DVDs are also appreciated
