[LM_NET] HIT: Canadian Provinces for low readers

["Rienti, Beth" <bethrienti@WPCSD.K12.NY.US>]

Hello all,

 

Here is a hit for series on Canada for use with low-level readers in
elementary school.  Thanks to those who responded.

 

one source i use for low readers in 6th grade is the Journey across
Canada series.  each book is about a province.  the publisher is Rourke
Book Co., Inc..  i have the British Columbia volume in front of me and
the isbn is 1-55916-206-6.  the copyright date is 1997 but perhaps they
have reprinted.

 

Have a look at books from these companies. They do sell to the U.S.

Saunders Books - the reading level may to a bit too high for you. Here
is Ontario we study our country in Grade 4
