Goodman’s Five-Star Stories

Reading Levels 1-10, Interest Levels 6-12

Motivate students with high-interest short stories from master authors adapted to accessible reading levels

  • Improve students’ ability to comprehend and analyze narrative text
  • Support struggling readers with high-interest short-stories at ten reading levels
  • Increase vocabulary, comprehension, and writing skills

One of our classic best-sellers, Goodman’s Five-Star Stories, supplements any literature curriculum or stands on its own by providing interesting fiction at just the right reading levels. Adapted well-known short stories by traditional authors and newer multicultural authors entice even struggling readers with tales of adventure and surprise. Vocabulary in context, cloze passages, and critical-thinking exercises help readers improve their understanding of the narrative text.  Instruction in story and literary elements improve analytical skills, while open-ended response activities after every selection encourage students to write in response to reading.  Students are able to visualize their progress with charts and graphs included in each student book.
