My students are interested in science. They are from are from a rural school district with a high population of students qualifying for free and reduced priced lunches. My students work very hard and want to learn, but they sometimes lack the background knowledge and reading skills to read and comprehend nonfiction text. I'd like to foster this interest in science with appealing, appropriately leveled science comprehension materials. Unfortunately, my school lacks these materials. The science textbooks, that the students typically learn from, are at a reading level that is very difficult for my students to read and understand.
