Samma historia med olika ord : En undersökning av ett nivåanpassat läsinlärningsläromedel för årskurs 1

Sammanfattning: This study examines a reader used in grade 1, Den magiska kulan, which is a part of the ABC-klubben series of teaching material. It is level-based, available in three different levels of difficulty, and one and the same class is supposed to share the same reading experience but be able to read the story at the level that each individual pupil has reached. The study analyses linguistic adaptation and elements intended to give motivation in the different books. The study shows that the simplest of the books may not help to increase the pupils’ motivation for reading but can only be regarded as training in decoding. The two more advanced books can give pupils more pleasurable reading because the language is more nuanced and expressive. The pupils thus have the chance to become absorbed in the books, with an understanding for the characters and events.
