Honus and Me--it actually was a movie but had a different title and was not
like the book. It is the first in a series and my kids love it--historical
fantasy fiction. Gooney Bird Greene is an easy read but good lead in for
writing. Justin and the Best Biscuits is good--has some history also.

Subject: [MOSAIC] Read Alouds for Third Grade
While we're on the subject of Read Alouds - does anyone have some fresh
new titles for third grade?
My stand-bys have been Ruby Holler and The Take of Despereaux and Cricket
in Times Square and There's An Owl in the Shower..
I'm ready for something new and different that has not been made into a
movie.
Thanks,
Laurie

My students and I LOVED Freak the Mighty.
What would some of you suggest reading after Freak the Mighty --
something similar that kids would like as well?

Freak the Mighty.

I have always used Fig Pudding by Ralph Fletcher with my lower level
seventh
graders. It is ONLY a read aloud (they do not ever have a copy in front
of
them) to help get them started and motivated about books and
listening skills. Works like a charm.
I want something similiar in topic (a cute funny story that kids can
relate to)
but a little more challenging for my honors classes this year. Any
ideas? It
will also be read aloud to them.
Thanks in advance!
Sara
