Ready to Read: reading support box
Order a selection of books that are carefully levelled and clearly colour banded so you can be sure the books are matched to children’s reading abilities.
How it works
The boxes are ideal for resourcing individual or small group reading support sessions.
Boxes contain an exciting mix of:
- fiction books
- Non-fiction books
- ‘real’ and ‘scheme’ books
The boxes provide an attractive, high-interest selection which is perfect for engaging struggling readers.
We offer books in sets with a maximum of 4 that can be individual titles, or a mix of both.
The boxes can be made up with books at a specific book-band level, or a range of levels. Let us know your requirements when you order your box.
Boxes will contain approximately 30 books.
Book Band levels available:
- Red
- Yellow
- Blue
- Green
- Orange
- Turquoise
- Purple
Understand how each colour matches a reading level on the Oxford Reading Tree website
