Description
Series Name: Welcome Newcomers Teen Fundamentals—Topic-Based Fiction at Emergent Reading Levels
Grades: 9–12 and Adult | Reading Level: 0–0.9 | Lexile: HL10L–HL90L
Developed for high school and adult newcomers who are in the early stages of learning English, this set of engaging fiction books is the perfect introduction to American culture as well as school and community systems. Based on the same 14 themes from the Welcome Newcomers collection (click here to view) but written at significantly lower reading levels, these stories are a great addition to any secondary newcomer classroom.
The key to this set's accessibility is emergent level text combined with full-color photos on every page to support both fluency and comprehension. Each book is 48 pages but just 650 words or less, allowing for only a few sentences per spread. Readers will relate to the main characters who are teen newcomers themselves, facing realistic challenges as they navigate daily life in a new country.
For classrooms that already have Welcome Newcomers, this is a great starter pack. The books complement the nonfiction/fiction pairs from that series. Because they are written at much lower reading levels, they can be used as introductions to a topic or as independent reading options.
Additional Features:
- 14 Fiction Books
- Full-Color Photographs on Every Page
- Diverse Teen Newcomer Characters
- Engaging Everyday-Life Scenarios
- Can Be Used as Stand-Alone Books or as a Starter Pack for Welcome Newcomers
