Mrs. Dermady's group just finished reading The Tiger Rising and they came up with the best presentation idea. I was more than thrilled with their creativity, final product and presentation skills.
There were 30 chapters in the book, but the chapters didn't have titles, so the kids thought that a good idea would be to come up with a catchy title for each chapter.
They each had special speaking parts during the presentation and they handled themselves in true 5th grade fashion.
The next book we will be reading is titled Rules by Cynthia Lord. It is about a brother and sister; the brother is Autistic. We are very excited to get started on this book because it is NEW!
