Reading
Our literature based basal reading series, published by Houghton Mifflin Harcourt, is
filled with many award winning authors' and illustrators' works.
In addition to this series, each semester the third graders will read a
trade book by Beverly
Cleary. Henry Huggins will be read first semester followed
by Ramona Quimby, Age 8 second semester. The children enjoy
reading these "chapter books" together! While reading these Cleary
books, we will continue working with new vocabulary words, comprehension
skills and language/ phonic development.
Each student has a quarterly goal for Accelerated Reader:
- 1st
quarter: 2 points
- 2nd
quarter: 4 points
- 3rd
quarter: 6 points
- 4th
quarter: 8 points
These
books can be checked out of the school library. Below is a link to the
Accelerated Reader list so you can check these books out from the public
library or use books from home. Have fun reading!
