Middle School Reads

[Lindsay Lombardi]

I'm teaching summer school to 6th graders going into 7th grade.  These are students who are recommended for the summer program because they need "extra academic intervention."

 

I currently teach high school and haven't had any experience with teaching any grade below 8th.

 

Any suggestions for high interest books we could read together as a class, in addition to a few suggestions that I could recommend for independent reading.

 

Any ideas would be extremely helpful.

Lindsay - you might post this in the adolescent literature group - I think you'd get a lot of responses there even before I crowdsource!  http://mcpopmb.ning.com/group/adolescentliterature
