Leveled Classroom Libraries Organized by Common Core State Standards

Each Classroom Library provides teachers with a collection of engaging, informative, high-interest titles including nonfiction Science and Social Studies titles and wide reading fiction titles.

CLASSROOM LIBRARIESCCSS LEVELED

CCSS Leveled Classroom LibrariesMore than 90,000 titles from 220+ publishers have been reviewed by our team of reading specialists and librarians to create hand-selected collections balanced for:• Fiction and nonfiction• Male and female interest• Ethnic group representation• Science, Social Studies, and

Literature• Educational and

entertainment value• Age-appropriateness

Each basket contains 30 titles, and each classroom set is unique. The baskets circulate among participating classrooms creating a continuous stream of high-interest titles.

Common Core State Standards Every ARC book wears a brightly colored sticker indicating its reading grade level, or placement within the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) Bands of Text Complexity. In other words, each book has been “sized” along a grade-level continuum, as shown in the IRLA Formative Assessment Framework.

Each title is hand-leveled by at least two independent levelers, each following the guidelines for text complexity analysis as described in Appendix A of the Common Core State Standards.
