Our reading curriculum will focus on American history. For each unit, students will be given the opportunity to choose from a small selection of books which revolve around a specific era of the fifth grade social studies curriculum. They will read their books and participate in literature circles to discuss what they have read and prepare a group presentation focusing on the history. (See Social Studies tab for more info.) Students will also learn to mark important text. Students are encourage, but not required, to buy their own copy of the books they will use.
