Macey's ch. 2 reflection

In chapter two of the text, I learned a lot about each type of reader: early, transitional, and fluent. I learned about what each type of reader looks like and what kind of text they should be reading.

Although this was a good introduction to the types of readers, I know that I would still need practice in distinguishing one from the other, especially transitional and fluent. I liked the fact that the chapter broke the readers into sections and in each section listed the characteristics of a level-appropriate book. I know this topic comes up later in the book, but I am curious to learn more about assigning books to appropriate levels. There are so many different levels of readers in any classroom, so there will be lots of levels of books. I would like to know how to classify each book.
