COL Print Resources

Grade links take you to a list of COL books needed for each unit of study. This is not an exhaustive list, just alternate titles I believe are the best and will be enjoyed by your students. New titles are added on a regular basis. Suggestions for alternate titles are gladly welcomed and appreciated.  Bolded C.O.L. titles are located in SHP Library. "More Print Resources" links show you other titles that can be used if the COL title is not available.  All of the titles listed under "More Print Resources" are located in the SHP library.
