Knowledge & Comprehension Library
Why do leaves change color? Why did the boy cry wolf? How can one person change the world? This collection of 344 books gives every student in your class something they can read on every topic, story, and author in the program — so the whole class builds the same knowledge and joins the same conversation.
Science and social studies topics, fables and folktales, an author study, and paired texts: everything the Text Sets program offers, each title once.
Three hundred forty-four books: all twelve Animals, Science, and Social Studies Text Sets, the complete Paired Text Collection, and both Joy Cowley Author Study Text Sets, with no title repeated. Because the books range from simple to more challenging, every student — beginning readers and strong readers alike — can read about the same topic and contribute to the same discussion. Reading book after book on one topic builds the vocabulary and background knowledge that make comprehension possible.
