.. Question 1 [30] 1.1 What books would you choose to support
Foundation Phase learners that are reading on the following
levels? • the frustrational level (3) • the instructional reading level
(3) • the independent reading level (3)
When selecting books to support Foundation Phase learners (typically aged 5–9) who are
reading at different levels, it is essential to match the books to their reading abilities. The three
levels—frustrational, instructional, and independent—correspond to different degrees of
reading proficiency.
1.1 Books for Different Reading Levels
1. Frustrational Level (Books too challenging)
At the frustrational level, the text is too difficult for the child to read even with assistance.
These books should be used sparingly as independent reading material but may be used for read-
aloud sessions by teachers or parents to expose the child to more complex vocabulary and ideas.
Book choices:
1. "Charlotte's Web" by E.B. White: This classic book is beyond the reach of
most Foundation Phase readers but can be read to them to introduce complex
themes and language.
2. "The BFG" by Roald Dahl: A great read-aloud book that will stretch their
listening comprehension and introduce more sophisticated vocabulary.
3. "Matilda" by Roald Dahl: Contains longer sentences and higher-level
vocabulary, perfect for teacher-led reading activities where learners can listen and
discuss the story.
2. Instructional Reading Level (Books for guided reading)
At the instructional level, books are slightly challenging but manageable with guidance. These
books are ideal for guided reading sessions, where the teacher can help students through more
difficult words and concepts, promoting learning and growth.
Book choices:
1. "Frog and Toad Are Friends" by Arnold Lobel: A series of short stories that
are manageable for students but contain some words and ideas that might require
support.
2. "Amelia Bedelia" by Peggy Parish: A fun book with wordplay and humor that
may require some explanation from the teacher, but learners will still be able to
follow the story with assistance.
, 3. "Henry and Mudge" by Cynthia Rylant: This series is perfect for early readers
who are developing their fluency, with simple sentence structures but some
challenging vocabulary.
3. Independent Reading Level (Books for self-reading)
At the independent reading level, books should be easy enough for the child to read and
understand on their own without assistance. These are ideal for building reading fluency and
confidence.
Book choices:
1. "The Very Hungry Caterpillar" by Eric Carle: Simple text and repetitive
patterns make this a perfect book for independent reading at the Foundation Phase
level.
2. "Pete the Cat: I Love My White Shoes" by James Dean: With predictable text
and engaging illustrations, this book is fun for learners to read on their own.
3. "Elephant and Piggie" series by Mo Willems: These easy-to-read books are
highly popular with young readers, offering simple text and humorous stories that
are perfect for independent reading.
Summary
Frustrational level: Books that are too hard to read alone but good for listening
comprehension (e.g., "Charlotte's Web").
Instructional level: Books that are slightly challenging but manageable with support
(e.g., "Frog and Toad Are Friends").
Independent level: Books that learners can read and enjoy on their own (e.g., "The Very
Hungry Caterpillar").
These books encourage development by matching the right level of difficulty to the learner’s
reading skills, ensuring progress while building confidence.
1.2 Think about and develop three innovative and creative ideas
to make reading “cool” for learners in the Foundation Phase. (6)
Source:
Here are three innovative and creative ideas to make reading "cool" for Foundation Phase
learners:
1. Storybook Dress-Up Days (2 points)
Concept: Organize special "Storybook Dress-Up Days" where learners dress up as their
favorite characters from the books they are reading. Teachers can also dress up and act
out scenes from the story. This encourages children to engage more deeply with the
characters and plot, making reading feel interactive and exciting.
