These high interest novels will allow my students to spend free time reading. The will be able to access the novels during class and bring them home. Most of my sophomores and juniors are at a below grade reading level, and they don't read because they feel they can't. These books will help ignite their love for reading by showing them they CAN read and LOVE books! This mix of classics and modern stories will keep my students motivated to learn new vocabulary and increase independent reading time. I am so excited to prove to them that anyone can love reading.
