AimeeM Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 What is the difference between the two? I think I remember being told that the only difference is the reading level of the passages? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Murrayshire Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I was told that the amount of writing was greater in B than in A. Hope you get some replies! I'm still toying with "should I buy SID A and SID B for 5th and 8th or just SID B.....ughh the decisions! Bumping you up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mona Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 I was told the reading level as well, but this chart shows that the topics research reports and sentence openers are covered in B, not A. http://www.excellenceinwriting.com/SWI-Topics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeatherH720 Posted May 15, 2013 Share Posted May 15, 2013 A & B teach the same units. B is geared towards middle grade students, A elementary. I believe B works through the early units much faster than than level A too. If you need specific help selecting which level, I highly recommend joining their Yahoo group and asking. I'm saying that even though I despise Yahoo groups. I use theirs, though, because it's that helpful They are extremely helpful and there are a lot of extra downloads and file helps.
