  1. 5th Grade Reading EQ: How can we work together to ensure that your child’s literacy skills are sufficient for the CRCT, middle school, and beyond?

  2. Information Age • Our students are coming of age at a time when we are bombarded with information. • I must teach these students to read critically, with an analytical approach. • These reading skills are the beginning of literary analysis, which will be required of them in high school and college.

  3. Independent Reading • Students must read 25 books during the school year as prescribed by the state standards. • 1st 9 weeks: 6 books+ • 2nd 9 weeks: 6 books+ • 3rd 9 weeks: 6 books+ • 4th 9 weeks: 5 books+ • In class: 2+ novels= 25 books
