[MOSAIC] basal reading series

[soozq55164 at aol.com]

karen,
My district does not use basals any more but when we did they purchased 
one that was way over the head of more than 1/2 the students (I used to 
call it the listening series). So I think you need to understand the 
population that you are buying for in addition to the series itself.

    I am working with a school district that is involved in the process 
of
purchasing a new basal series. They would like to get one most closely
aligned with balanced literacy. Does anyone know of a checklist of
document that can be used for making this decision?
Thanks
Karen
