Escape

This is a high interest, low level readability magazine with several articles, a graphic text, an interview, a story, a graphic organizer, strategy focus on monitoring for meaning, ask an expert, and a project. This magazine format is appropriate for on-level 3-5th graders or below level 6-8th graders. The theme is "Escapes", so the Great Houdini, a prisoner of war escape for freedom in World War 2, escaping the claws of a bear, escaping through reading, etc. I'm including the paper Teacher's Guide, with Before, During, and After suggestions for each article or story, black-line masters to be copied, etc.
