Hi-Lo books are high interest, low reading level books that bring engaging material to reluctant readers. Over my career as a teacher I’ve used books like these in many capacities. They’re the perfect quick read for students who’ve forgotten their silent reading books. They’re accessible for English Language Learners. They’re perfect for alternative programs and teens who struggle to find books with relevant material in language that doesn’t slow them down/ bounce them out completely. The contemporary range of hi-los from @orcabook deals with a huge variety of important and difficult topics by an incredible range of authors, including Canadian powerhouses @ericwaltersauthor @carriemacwrites and @robinstevensonwrites

If you’ve never looked into it, you should check them out. A large variety of teaching material and lesson plans are available on the Orca Soundings website.
