Finding leveled books

Finding the correct leveled books for a child is crucial.  Reading only on a too challenging level can lead to frustration where reading too low doesn't do anything for increasing readings skills or vocabulary.  Students should be allowed to read lower or higher than their level, but it is important that the correct level is found so reading growth can take place.  Scholastic's website has a book wizard that can help teachers (and parents) find a variety of books on the correct level.
