Thanks so much. We have a new Special Ed behavior teacher whose kids need a street smart kind of book below a grade four level. Any ideas are great. I appreciate your suggestions and will be sure to pass these on. :) Cheryl 'Teaching is a work of heart.'

I find that using graphic novels are very motivating for my lowest readers. The most popular/common are the series by Dav Pilkey: Ricky Ricotta and his Mighty Robot series and the Captain Underpants Series. There is also the Graphic Sparks series (various authors) and the Sports Illustrated Kids Graphic Novels which are both published by Stone Arch Books. The Bone series by Jim Smith are a favorite. My students also like the Franny K. Stein Mad Scientist series by Jim Benton. The "new" Hardy Boys are also available as graphic novels as are "The Warriors" series (about animals) by Erin Hunter. My girls like the Ivy and Bean series. Another High/Low series that has recently become popular is the Wake, Fade, Gone series by Lisa McMann. These books are suitable for 8th grade middle school students and up. >Hope this helps. > >Susan -----Original Message----- >From: Cheryl Consonni <[email protected]> >Sent: Oct 11, 2011 11:09 PM >To: [email protected] >Subject: [MOSAIC] please help > >whoever gave a list of good books that are high interest lo readability, could >you please send again, i went back a while and can't find the link, thanks so >much > Cheryl >'Teaching is a work of heart.' >_______________________________________________ >Mosaic mailing list >[email protected] >To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to >http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org > >Search the MOSAIC archives at http://snipurl.com/MosaicArchive > _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org Search the MOSAIC archives at http://snipurl.com/MosaicArchive _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org Search the MOSAIC archives at http://snipurl.com/MosaicArchive
