Have you looked at Taffy Raphael's Book Clubs? One of her titles is Book Clubs for Middle School.Her whole theory is using the same text with all, but providing support so everyone is successful. (book partners, books on tape). That way everyone can discuss a meaty text. During guided reading the teacher uses leveled books on the same theme or topic. She has a web site and also has plans for books through Small Planet. Here is the web address. _http://www.planetbookclub.com/teachers/professionalsrc.html_ (http://www.planetbookclub.com/teachers/professionalsrc.html) Hope is helps.
