Reading in 5 V
The reading curriculum for 5th grades uses authentic literature selections in Houghton Mifflin Harcourt Journeys anthology, as well selected children's novels that help children connect concepts presented in the content areas with the presented literature. Students in 5th grade work on skills that will develop their analysing skills, constructing & organizing meaning from a given text, generating responses in their reading responses, and understanding the processes of reading and writing.
Some of the novels the students will read this year include:
The Diving Bell by Todd Strasser
The Sign of the Beaver by Elizabeth George Speare
