The head English Teacher wants me to order English Language story books, and textbooks for conversation classes, camps, and general use. For story books I was first thinking stuff like Harry Potter, and Artimus Fowl but then I remembered they have trouble reading and understanding simple phrases.
I don't want to order children picture books, because they would be boring and too short, but anything that has too complex of story lines would be to hard for them. I am thinking maybe animae books in English. Any one else have any ideas? Any success with middle school reading materials? Text books that don't double as head rests?
