Skinnybones by Barbara Park is about a 5th grade boy, Alex. Things
don't go the way Alex plans them especially baseball. he ends up
playing his rival TJ. I read it aloud to my third graders but it is
readable by this age group. Amazon has over 50 review of the book.

I want to send home summer reading choices for the rising 3rd and
4th grade students. I don't want a long list of books, just 3 or 4
titles they can choose to have read by the first day of school. I
want us to start off the year with book talks about their reading
and thinking. Anyone have any ideas of fun titles for this age
group? The rising 4th grade students are mostly on or above grade
level, the 3rd grade students are at or below grade level. I'm
mostly worried about making the book accessible to all.

How children learn is as important as what they learn: process and
content go hand in hand. http://www.responsiveclassroom.org
