Higher Steps Recommendations for Text
Organized By Level Sources:
Brown, K.J. (1999/2000). What kind of text for whom and when: Textual Scaffolding for beginning readers. The Reading Teacher, 53, 292-307.
Morris, D. (2005). The Howard Street tutoring manual: Teaching at-risk readers in the primary grades. New York: Guilford Press. (ISBN # 1-59385-124-3)
Depending on your school’s leveled library resources, your ability to use a school/district lab for laminating, and the number of word study kits you choose to produce, the materials cost for Higher Steps may range from $1,000 to $3,000. For texts, you will need at least 10-15 titles at 2-2 D, 3-E, 3-M, 3-D, 4-E, 4-M, and 4-D levels. If you plan on executing Higher Step Triads or small groups at some point, you will need multiple copies of some titles. (Note: Some stores give educators additional discounts) For materials, a list is available in your Higher Steps binder under Higher Steps Supplies.

Higher Steps Recommendations for Text
Organized By Level Sources:
Brown, K.J. (1999/2000). What kind of text for whom and when: Textual Scaffolding for beginning readers. The Reading Teacher, 53, 292-307.
Morris, D. (2005). The Howard Street tutoring manual: Teaching at-risk readers in the primary grades. New York: Guilford Press. (ISBN # 1-59385-124-3)
Depending on your school’s leveled library resources, your ability to use a school/district lab for laminating, and the number of word study kits you choose to produce, the materials cost for Higher Steps may range from $1,000 to $3,000. For texts, you will need at least 10-15 titles at 2-2 D, 3-E, 3-M, 3-D, 4-E, 4-M, and 4-D levels. If you plan on executing Higher Step Triads or small groups at some point, you will need multiple copies of some titles. (Note: Some stores give educators additional discounts) For materials, a list is available in your Higher Steps binder under Higher Steps Supplies.
