I have found this age group particularly enjoy Chelm stories. I had several 4th grade classes that would want to hear the same stories over and over -- just like younger grades. Once I overheard an older student telling a younger one that he was really in for a treat because in 4th Grade they got to hear Chelm stories! They love being read to and I think they miss the experience at that age.
