100 Book Challenge is the ideal for addressing the needs of the ELL Student population as students learn to read in English, because 100 Book Challenge provides the skills and tools that all emergent readers need. 100 Book Challenge combines phonics and meaning-based learning models to guarantee student success from the very beginning and then supports student achievement through advanced levels.

100 Book Challenge immerses students in real books – interesting books, books the students choose to read. Hundreds of different titles are organized into color-coded collections and presented in an easy-to-understand sequence. Students read voraciously and strategically. Built into the book-leveling sequence are the phonics skills students need to acquire to ensure success. These skills are further made explicit for the student, teacher and parents via Skills Cards designed for each reading level. Through real reading in real books, ELL students achieve real results.
