From the Author

This book has been such a labor of love! Each chart in this book was created with real students in real classrooms across the nation. I am so thankful for all of the wonderful middle school and elementary school teachers that let me into their classrooms to work with their students. The Common Core reading standards are made plain and simple for students through the use of visual aids. I hope that this book is a starting point for all reading teachers charged with simplifying and demystifying the standards.-Dr. Roz
