How do you ‘read’ novels with your high school learning support class?

I’m a special education teacher. I teach English to grades 9 and 10 in a Learning Support classroom (for clarification, what used to be called Resource Room). My students are reading independently on about a 4th-7th grade level. There is a wide variation in skill levels (that’s a whole other set of issues…students are not grouped correctly because there is no reliable or valid data system used in my district to gauge their reading levels). Some of my students struggle with oral reading/decoding/fluency, all struggle with comprehension, all struggle with writing, and all struggle with discussion. I’ve developed several curricular units over the past three years (another big side issue is that there has been no curriculum until I stepped in to this classroom). I’ve tried to take what Gen-Ed does and adapt it. My various units include the following texts: Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian, The Hate U Give, and a few nonfiction articles throughout. I also do a unit on persuasion/bias/propaganda but I don’t do a novel in this unit (Please don’t judge - I know it’s not enough but even this has taken me a few years to create. I’m the primary caretaker for my daughter and I’m taking grad classes, and just…life….so I don’t have the time to also be a full- time curriculum writer). I have so many questions on how to be better in this position (I’m new to this grade band). But my big one for this post is: how do you give your LS students access to novels?? Do you read the whole thing aloud? Do you play them on audio for the whole class? Do you have students listen and follow along in a physical book? Do you have students read independently? Do you just read portions of novels? Do you have them do a mix of all of those? I feel lost on a lot of things when it comes to high school learning support, and little by little I want to do better. This is one question that’s always on my mind. Thanks in advance !
