[CASL-L] Leveling books in a middle school library

[denise demello]

Agree, I have done lessons with some special ed teachers and students on how to use Destiny with reading levels , the kids are always surprised to see how many books are in their range .

I agree with not leveling. 
However, this would be a great opportunity to show kids (and teachers) how to search Destiny by interest and F&P range. Maybe you could show your principal how easy it is!

Good morning,
I was asked to discuss the possibility of leveling all of the books in the LMC. Using Fontas and Pinell. I am wondering if any other middle school has done this and the benefits of doing so. I have reservations about this as I do not want to limit access (or have a student perceived limited access) based on a level assigned to a book. 
Any thoughts you have would be appreciated.
