Yes. The Instructional Resource Center (IRC) has a leveled book kit collection.

IRC Book Kits feature children's books selected for use with guided reading. Each kit includes six or more copies of a title. Kits are located next to the big books and are presented in a red expanding folders complete with book covers for easy browsing and information pertaining to recommended reading levels.

How were kits leveled? Original Kits were evaluated by COE education students as part of course assignments. Recent additions to the collection were purchased with leveling information already identified.

What leveling Information is available? Leveled kits may include the following information: Lexile grade and stage (emergent, early, early fluent and fluent), F & P (Fountas and Pinnell) and Directed Reading Assessment (DRA).
