I just finished up a Children's Lit class here at the U of MT and our professor read us Sahara Special which we decided would be appropriate for 5th-6th grade. The protagonist is in 5th grade but it does have a little bit of language that I think you could edit out - it's by Esmeì Raji Codell and I thought it was great. Another good one might be Sachar's "Holes" if most of them haven't read that yet. Jennifer K.

Barrie's "Peter Pan" -----Original Message----- From: School Library Media & Network Communications [mailto:LM_NET@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU] On Behalf Of Jennifer Podolsky Sent: Wednesday, May 09, 2007 1:34 PM To: LM_NET@LISTSERV.SYR.EDU Subject: TAR: Short 5th grade read-alouds Hi Everyone Can anyone recommend some short read-alouds that would be appropriate for 5th grade? Short novels, short stories, anything you can think of. I just finsihed a long and intense research unit and Battle of the Books with my 5th grade classes and they have worked for months really hard. I want to reward them with some read-aloud time for the last month of school. They could use the break as we wind down the school year. Any ideas welcome!
