This round of Book Clubs (fiction) is called Getting Into Series. The goal is to understand basic story elements and characters' motivations, how those things relate to the meaning of the story, solve for new vocabulary, and understand text features/structures (title, chapter headings, cover, illustrating). Students will also compare stories and authors.

A variety of fiction and non fiction novels and articles will be read throughout the year. Other Units of Study can be found under the Reading/Writing tab.
