Upper Fiction Book Series


Our media center is set up so that students can easily browse for books that they want to read and are able to read independently.  One of the sections in our media center houses our upper fiction chapter books, many just call these chapter books.  These are books that are 150 or more pages and are usually a higher reading level.  Students in our school typically start reading books in this section in late second grade to beginning of third.


These books are placed on the shelf in alphabetical order by author's last name, but to make locating a book even easier, I use Demco book stops to label the series, if we have at least 3 books in a series.  Since I began using book stops, students are much more independent when they are looking for books, which helps when I am stuck behind the circulation desk.

The books in our upper fiction chapter book section often become super popular and are moved to the Wildcat Favorites section.   (see the post about Wildcat Favorites HERE)  This is a current list of the series books that are in the upper fiction chapter books in our media center:
