Description:

Students will explore exceptional children’s literature through the popular Five in a Row curriculum. This year our books focus on animals and their characteristics. A unit study approach includes investigation into science, geography, writing, and art topics. Every two weeks, a well-written and illustrated picture book takes center stage. Students hear the book read aloud and experience hands-on projects, poetry, games, and songs. They create their own special notebook and work on handwriting pages each week.

Titles include: Night of the Moonjellies, The Salamander Room, The Bee Tree, Three Names, Owl Moon, and Make Way for Ducklings.
