Welcome to my Book lists!
Grade 5 students are required to read every night. Additionally, I require them to branch out in their reading interests, and try other genres.
Below is a link to help clarify what books fall into each genre category, as well as offers some reading suggestions.

The lists I have created are only some of my favorite 5th grade books.
Enjoy!
