Johnny Tremain

Hint: I read Johnny Tremain with my 5th grade class when I first began teaching and it was too much. I had a classroom set of books and it goes so well with Colonial times! Yikes! The kids did not like it at all. They complained about it being too long and too involved. I don't try to read it like that anymore. Instead I read excerpts from it with my Colonial unit. The kids enjoy this and I think they understand it better! If I had time I would read it together as a class, or use it as a read-aloud. It is a super book but I think a little tough for 5th grade.
