Hi-Lo is a term used to describe high-interest, low-reading-level students. It can be difficult to find books for these students because you need to find appealing stories, at their reading level, with characters and a plot that falls at their age level (not too babyish).
Typically, the upper limit of Hi-Lo reading materials is 4th or 5th grade, at which point resources taper off dramatically, so we’ve taken books that fit into the “high interest-low level” role (but aren’t actually ‘hi-lo’ books), and are using them to slowly expand the reading level while teaching history, geography, and science through an engaging story that holds their interest.
These FREE Hi-Lo units begin with a book, include some background / introductory material, and have hands-on activities, video clips, critical thinking questions, and writing activities included.
Homeschool On the Range features simple living, including homemaking and homesteading, and homeschooling. Their education posts include free book studies for struggling learners in the upper grades.
Access the units – and see what’s upcoming – on their Book Studies page.
