Thinkers Book Lists
Book Lists for Each School Year
Each school year, Portals selects books that introduce themes and ideas for all ages - so all of your students are talking about the same ideas. Books are selected for different reading levels around the theme for the year. Book lists rotate through a three year cycle highlighting American History, Ancient World History, and Modern World History.
Thinkers Book List
(Middle School)
Thinker texts introduce the great ideas of history and our times. Both read-aloud and readers are still included. We encourage reading aloud even as learners continue to grow. These texts will give you discussion points that could carry well into the evening.
