[MOSAIC] nonfiction guided reading materials

[ANNESECJ]

National Geographic does have a good program I use them in 3rd grade and I think the lower grades in my district use them also. I also use the Nat. Geographic magazines that come in monthly. They are similar to Weekly reader and they have different levels. The kids find the articles very interesting. Great pictures and they use many of the features we study in our Toolkit program.

I would strongly recommend Red Brick, which has become an imprint of 
National Geographic, I believe.  The books have nonfiction features such as 
glossary, table of contents, bold faced print, index, some labels. 

I also just purchases a number of titles from Mondo Published and they are 
just beautiful.  We were also looking for nonfiction.
