Wonderful World Reading Series

A Three-Level Reading Program Inspired by Real-World Topics

The Wonderful World Reading series is a dynamic reading curriculum developed to build English skills through globally inspired content. With three progressive levels—Basic, Prime, and Master—this series offers a total of 18 books (6 per level), each packed with engaging materials designed for learners ranging from elementary school to adult learners.

1. Basic Level (Books 1–6)

Target: Elementary school students
Lexile Range: 110L–480L | CEFR: A1
Word Count per Text: 50–120 words

At the Basic level, students are introduced to English through colorful, topic-based stories supported by National Geographic media. These books feature:

• 12 units across 4 chapters, plus 2 review sections and 2 video-based lessons.
• Context-rich learning using photos, short texts, and stickers (Books 1–3) or structured sentence practice (Books 4–6).
• Carefully sequenced reading passages and activities such as Picture Walks, vocabulary previews, and grammar introductions.
• Real-world themes across cultures, science, and geography, encouraging a broader global perspective.

Each lesson begins with visuals and warm-up activities that spark interest and build background knowledge. Learners engage with content through fiction and non-fiction texts, reinforcing core vocabulary and grammar through songs, writing, and speaking exercises. Additional videos created by National Geographic enhance immersion and comprehension.

2. Prime Level (Books 1–6)

Target: Upper elementary to early high school students
Lexile Range: 300L–830L | CEFR: A1–A2
Word Count per Text: 100–290 words

In the Prime level, students progress to more detailed texts with expanded vocabulary and increased grammatical complexity. Content includes:

• A blend of academic and cultural topics from across the globe.
• Enhanced reading skills development using graphic organizers, inference questions, and summaries.
• Continued use of National Geographic media (photos, audio, video) to boost engagement.

Each chapter comprises three units, designed with visual cues and real-world country contexts. Learners activate background knowledge through videos and themed warm-ups. Activities include sentence-building practice, key grammar work, and keyword identification in context. After every two chapters, learners enjoy interactive video and song-based lessons to strengthen listening and critical thinking skills.

3. Master Level (Books 1–6)

Target: Middle school students to adults
Lexile Range: 600L–1130L | CEFR: A2–B1
Word Count per Text: 200–450 words

The Master level challenges learners with longer, more sophisticated texts that demand deeper comprehension and analysis. The focus expands to include:

• Current events, history, global issues, and complex storytelling.
• Critical reading tasks like topic identification, inference-making, and summarizing with graphic organizers.
• Practical application of vocabulary and grammar with structured writing and speaking tasks.

In this level, the role of media becomes even more central. Learners interact with videos and texts that mirror real-life global contexts, helping them connect language learning with real-world relevance. Video-based lessons continue (Books 1–3) with accompanying song activities that sharpen listening skills while encouraging reflection.
