Leveled Reading

One of things that I miss most about my one year of teaching elementary school is the easy access to leveled readers.  Modifying lessons for my second graders was a cinch thanks to a closet full of "little books".  I admit that modifying lessons at the middle school level can be difficult as low-level, high-interest texts can be difficult to come by and expensive to purchase on my own.  I recently discovered readworks.org, a website that provides leveled texts for the ideal price of $0.  Registration is easy and I noticed that the site recently added novel units for popular books such as The Westing Game.
