My first suggestion is to make sure that you give a little bit of everything. You never know who your getting and nothing would be more discouraging than getting a reading list full of book you can't handle.I just starting | reading a "Katie Kazoo Switcharoo" book to my class for read aloud. They are really enjoying it. I always have a hard time remembering where the 3rd graders start the year on average since I have a 2/3 room. I would say this would be a "high-average" book for over the summer into 3rd. For a "must read" why not do something like asking them to read one of the versions of Cinderella. | |
There are so many at so many different reading levels that you could have a great discussion to start off the school year.I have an obnoxious list of titles if you need them. Another idea (sorry I _love_ books):
Shel Silverstein or Jack Prelutsky
Pick one of their books and have the kids come in with their favorite poem. (I love "It's Raining Pigs and Noodles" by Prelutsky - the title just cracks me up!) Junie B. Jones books are always a big hit in my room. Yes, even with my boys. She's just a funny kid.
