5th Grade

1. This summer, each fifth-grade student is expected to read or listen to one chapter book--  at least 200 pages long. 

2. Students will complete the two assignments below: book review and silly photo writing prompt. 

• Students are responsible for borrowing or purchasing their novels.

• When choosing your free-choice novel, consider the level of challenge.  Every book is given a Lexile score. The higher the Lexile level, the more challenging the book. For more information on Lexile levels and to read samples of different Lexile scores, click here. We want you to enjoy your summer reading, not feel like it's a chore! 

3. If you have an iReady account, work on MyPath reading lessons based on your end of 4th grade reading diagnostics. 

STUDENT CHOICE!  Your book is selected by you!  You are free to select from our list or find another recommended book.  Be ready to work on your book review assignment along with the silly photo writing prompt, which will both be due first day of school!
