Five Finger Test
When you are choosing a new book to read, use the Five Finger Test to check to see if it is too hard for you.

1. Open the book to the middle and choose any page to read.
2. Read the page. (aloud if possible)
3. Put out 1 finger for every word you do not know or cannot pronounce.
4. If you have 5 fingers out, the book is too difficult to read without help.
5. If you do not get any fingers out, but are reading very slowly and decoding almost every word, you will not enjoy the book.

Here's the finger guide:
0 or 1 Finger: The book is o.k. for you.
2 Fingers: The book is still good for you.
3 Fingers: The book could be a bit hard for you to understand.
4 Fingers: The book will be too difficult to read and understand.
5 Fingers: Choose another book
