FOUNDATION READERS 7 - LESSON PLANNER

Foundations Reading Library is an exciting new seven-level series of graded readers written specially to meet the needs of younger learners beginning to read in English. The series provides carefully crafted, age-appropriate stories that revolve around a group of teenage characters living in a small US town, and the adventures they have.
