Book list?

Post by slavila » Fri Jun 26, 2009 8:20 am

What exactly is the book list that you can buy for $5? What is it a list for?

Thanks.

Hi Sarah! It's a list of books organized according to genre and level that can be used to help select books for Drawn into the Heart of Reading. So, it lists each of the 9 genres (i.e. historical fiction, adventure, nonfiction, humor, etc.), and for each of those it gives around 10-20 book ideas for each grade level grouping (the levels are 2/3, 4/5, and 6/7/8). It also has a coding system on the back for the books selected from different resources (i.e. S = Sonlight book, B = Books Children Love, etc.). We've used the list for DITHOR, and also for free reading books. It is a steal at $5.00 - it's quite a find! :) Ours is very tattered. :D

In Christ,
Julie

Here's a link to the DITHOR Sample Book Ideas List:

You can use the list to choose your own books, or you can use the HOD Book Packs already put together for you for use with DITHOR. Here are links to those:
