Raz-Kids is a must have for any elementary school teacher. This online library of developmentally appropriate books that are written at 27 different reading levels lets the teacher move the student slowly through a natural progression which will eventually lead to fluency and comprehension. Fiction and non-fiction books are accessible by either teacher or student. Teachers are given tools to access reading level via tests and worksheets to better scaffold learning. A level correlation chart is also available for the teacher to better understand and record student abilities and progress. Students can be digitally assigned specific books to be read via internet. This is great for parents who are active in their child's education. Short videos are offered as well to help the teacher navigate the site for optimum usage.

As an elementary school teacher with an MA and 15+ years in education, I was completely blown away by the simple access I had to all of these essential elements in organizing a large class of readers. I have students in 3rd grade that read at second grade level and I have second graders reading at 4th grade level. This tool makes it so much easier to differentiate activities and assignments for my students. Raz-Kids is an amazing tool that helps teachers simplify and organize their young readers. Two big thumbs up!
