The Solution for
Achieving
And Ohio’s Third Grade Reading Guarantee
Today’s students are being asked to read more informational text than ever before. In the past,
elementary school students have been required to read more fiction than nonfiction. To meet the
Common Core State Standards, half of the reading materials should be nonfiction even at the
youngest grades. These informational texts should offer meaningful curriculum knowledge to students.
Educators and librarians are asked to provide “texts that build knowledge coherently within and across
grades.
