Relatively Challenging (or 2-dots) Leveled Readers (LRs) are books written for intermediate to advance beginning readers. They are used to help build vocabulary, develop decoding strategies and word recognition skills, learn the structure of narrative or expository texts, develop fluency, and foster love of reading. 2 Dots LRs have higher word count, more low frequency words, long and more complex sentence, and more sophisticated language (i.e. use of figures of speech). Below is the synopsis of texts/stories in this Leveled Reader. Bounty in Our Hands: Dulnuwan, a father, works in the fields every day. His wife, Bugan, and children, Ali and Dina, also help him out. Read on to find out the process of planting rice and the impact of weather on the crops. The story also features a discussion on El Niño and La Niña.
