Themes: Hi-Lo, Sports, urban teens, Track, Running. The 16-page Teacher's Resource Guides CDs provide 10 reproducible activities per title to extend student reading skills. Simply select and print activities that you need. Books sold separately. Central Avenue was close now. Victor knew he had to dig in. There was a place deep inside him. It's where his speed came from.

Reading supports must be seamless, so that struggling readers are not stigmatized. The District 13 series does just that--written using carefully chosen vocabulary and simple sentences, the novels offer compelling teen stories about characters that interest young adult readers. Using sports as a backdrop, these edgy and mature titles confront issues that are of great importance to urban teens, especially teenaged boys: Coming of age, dating, fitting in, friendships, drugs, self-esteem, and school. Straightforward plots move readers through the 48-pages of text quickly and efficiently with satisfying resolutions.
