Project You!

Dear Class,

Today I brought some graded readers from the Thomson Foundations Library.
This series starts lower than most graded reader series.
It has 7 levels from low beginner to low intermediate.

I really recommend these stories because they are have interesting plots, colorful illustrations, and are all set in the same small town.
Let's try reading them together!
