Also, I remind them if it makes them uncomfortable bring the book back and we'll find them something else. During orientation I add that if they know their guardian doesn't want them reading YA yet, steer clear. Finally, I have an 8th grade only section. These books are from past Lincoln, Illinois Teen Reader's Choice, lists. If they are leveled on the Perma Bound site 7-12, I'll order them. If the books off the list are labeled 9-12, I tend not to purchase them until after I've read them. My 8th graders can also order any book from the HS through inner library loan. My mature 8th graders, most in AT, sometimes take advantage, most do not. </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Nov 9, 2021 at 2:49 PM Kristie Cerniglia via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr"><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:"comic sans ms",sans-serif;font-size:small">My middle school is grades 6-8 and we have The Alchemyst, but not the other series. </div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:"comic sans ms",sans-serif;font-size:small"><br></div><div class="gmail_default" style="font-family:"comic sans ms",sans-serif;font-size:small">I do have YA books that are available to all, but they have a YA sticker on them and I tell the students they are reading a YA book when they check the book out. </div></div><br><div class="gmail_quote"><div dir="ltr" class="gmail_attr">On Tue, Nov 9, 2021 at 2:03 PM Donna Brockmeyer via AISLE <<a href="mailto:aisle@list.railslibraries.info" target="_blank">aisle@list.railslibraries.info</a>> wrote:<br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0px 0px 0px 0.8ex;border-left:1px solid rgb(204,204,204);padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">I work in a middle school with grades 5-8.
