I've found that magazines like "Cricket" have both fiction and non-fiction pieces that work well for my sixth graders. "Storyworks" is from Scholastic - lower level (Maybe 5th?) but has lesson plans online and a lot of teacher support on the web.

I will have from 5 - 10 students per block - one block each of sixth and seventh grade. I am thinking that I would like to use short stories, short non-fiction passages and possibly short novels to hone their comprehension. I have no budget to work with so I am looking to put together my materials and I really appreciate any and all ideas fro this particular assignment.
