  ** Resources to Help Your Child Become A Reader **   Reading Rockets (for young kids) and ...[|Adlit.org] (for older kids) are websites that offer GREAT tools for helping your child grow as a reader.   Also try [|Read Kiddo Read], [|Guys Read], or [|ReaderGirlz].   **Middle School Grade Level Recommendations ** Students in our middle school include ages 11-14. They have a wide range of reading interests and abilities. A book that matches one student will not be a good fit for all. Book reviews from the //School Library Journal // include recommended grade levels based on a book’s sophistication and complexity, as well as its depictions of violence, drug/alcohol use, relationships, and language. If the book is recommended for above grade 6, you will find the following notations on the title page: 7- 8- 9- <span style="background-color: #ffffff; color: #000000; font-family: serif; font-size: 190%; text-align: start; text-decoration: none; vertical-align: baseline;">Students are instructed at school to choose books that reflect their families’ own values and standards. Please talk with your child about the books he/she is checking out. Contact Mr. Canfield with any questions.
