2 TO THE TEACHER The short, high-interest reading passages in this book were written to capture the interest of readers who are not reading at grade level. The engaging mini mystery format encourages the reader to become a detective and solve the mystery they are reading along with the main character. The Flesch-Kincaid Readability Scale was used to determine the approximate reading level for each story. Use your own judgment to determine if the story is at an appropriate reading level for your student. Since the story is high interest, there may be vocabulary that the student is not familiar with. On the Words to Know pages, we have featured these words along with their definitions and a sample sentence. In some cases, students may need extra help pronouncing the names of the people, places, or things in the story. Start with the Before You Read page. Take some time to discuss the Background Information with the student. This will help to set the scene for each mystery. A map skills activity can be added as students find where the story takes place on a map. What Do You Know and Make a Prediction are extra activities to enhance the learning process. Add a research element by asking students to use the Internet, an encyclopedia, atlas or other resource to find out more about the topic in the story or where the story takes place. After You Read engages students in the comprehension process of reading. These research-based activities follow state standards and incorporate some of the Best Practices in Reading.
