ABOUT THE SERIES

PM Reading

A unique collection of meticulously levelled fiction and non-fiction books, PM Reading provides quality, variety and depth to ensure children build confidence through gradual progression and enjoy the experience of learning to read.

PM builds balanced readers

The balanced reader decodes, reads with fluency and phrasing and comprehends across a wide range of text types. The PM series has taken this complex model and broken it down into 30 incremental levels for ages 4 to 12+.

Please see ‘The PM Story’ for a breakdown by colour band, and ‘How PM Works’ for our annotated texts designed to help teachers to understand the progression of the PM reading programme. Both can be found on shop.scholastic.co.uk/pmreading
