Presented in this guide are the philosophy, evolution, structure, and implementation of a nongraded reading program which is organized on 23 sequential learning levels. The program concentrates on requirements in word analysis skills, comprehension skills, and study skills; and provides listings of suggested texts, supplementary materials, and evaluation tests. Readiness checklists (physical, social, emotional, and psychological), informal reading inventories, sample report cards, a letter for transfer students, and a brief discussion of parent-teacher conferences are included.
