Fifth grade read a variety of different books throughout this year. They liked fiction, and non fiction, they also enjoyed the Guinness Book of Records to the point that I had to split them up in groups and each group would have the book for 10-15 minutes each. As a class we read the book “Yellow Star,” which is a true story of a person who survived the holocaust as a child in the Lodz ghetto in Poland. It was great to see some of the responses to this toughing book. We also read, “Rules” which is about a fifth grade girl who has an autistic brother. This was a story that truly touched us all and gave us an insight into this topic. It also gave the opportunity to have great discussions. Overll, it was a great year, full of great reading.
