[Simtrainer-l] Level Novels

[Beverly Colombo]

Jen- 

I have some of the novels that Portland decided to use for Xtreme Reading in Portland.  I can give you my copies.

Where are you teaching this year?

I can stop by and bring books and talk to you if you want.

Thanks 

Bev

I've had success with Kwame Alexander's novels in verse, The Crossover and Booked, for independent reading (as well as House Arrest, another novel in verse by K.A. Holt).
