Mrs. McGuire Manor Elementary School
Fairfax, CA Grades PreK-2

I teach 2nd and 3rd grade in a Multi Age Program in California. I have the luxury of getting to know my kids over a span of 2 years instead of one.

Teaching 2 grades leads to a wide variety of reading levels. I am always trying to find engaging books for the kids that are still learning to read.

My kids are always lured by comic books, and these books are perfect. These are comic books that are at "Just Right" levels for my lower readers. Finally here is something that will help develop their love of reading.

If you purchase these books for my class you will be purchasing the missing link in my small group reading program. These are books at the kids' levels that will hook them in!
