A single Louisiana Teen Readers' Choice Award (LTRC) classroom can still span a wide range of reading levels.

Unlike a state reading list, a Louisiana Teen Readers' Choice Award (LTRC) list is portable: the same framework is taught across districts and, in the case of AP and IB, across countries. That makes these titles a reliable backbone for 10th grade planning whether you are a teacher mapping a unit, a homeschooler following a recognized sequence, or a parent checking what Louisiana Teen Readers' Choice Award (LTRC) expects.

How to use this list: treat the Louisiana Teen Readers' Choice Award (LTRC) titles as the core and layer in state-cited or thematically-related books to round out a 10th gradeyear. Each book’s page shows its Lexile measure, grade range, themes, and any challenge history, so you can match a text to a specific reader rather than to the grade label alone.
