Red to Green Banded Pack
PACK INCLUDES 22 BOOKS
A selection of our BEST-SELLING 'banded' collection range. As always we have selected books which we feel are a 'best fit' to the criteria, as outlined in Book Bands for Guided Reading (Bickler et al,). FREE STICKERS will be included in this pack identified as Red (2) to Green (5).
Book band colours typically follow a progression from easiest to most difficult, though there can be slight variations between publishers with year group correlations. Here's a common sequence:
- Red/Yellow Book Band (Expected Reception, Aged 4–5): Short, simple sentences with basic vocabulary.
- Blue/Green Book Band (Expected Year 1, Aged 5–6): Sentences become more complex with a wider range of vocabulary.
Take a look at our Book Bands Chart to see details of emerging, expected and confident exceeding levels for each age and year group. Children will work through the levels during the school year so it’s important not to worry about gaining each level but to promote reading enjoyment and discuss any concerns with their teacher.
At School Bargain Bookshop, we provide discounted books for students and bargain books collections curated by our experienced team. We offer these at reduced prices, helping schools stretch their budget further.
The books shown will not necessarily be included in your pack but they give a flavour of the selection.
