Today in class the Grade 4/5 students selected books they are interested in reading from a range of group sets brought into the classroom. The books chosen by students are listed below.
Jack London - The call of the wild and white fang.
Millicent Min - Girl genius
Sylvie Well - My Guardian Angel
Kate DiCamillo - The miraculous journey of Edward Tulzane
Susan Cooper - Over sea, under stone
Kenneth Oppel - Silverwing - How one small bat became a noble hero
The plan is students will start reading their book after the Pchum Ben holiday (we do not want books left at holiday locations). The students will read this book in class during the month of October. The students can take the book home to finish it off in the last week if they are falling behind.
During the month of October students will work with other students who are reading the same book and make predictions, discuss the plot, characters, and make personal connections.
The students will try to read something different and may find a new favorite author.
