The new school year is fast approaching. I have been working away on getting everything ready.
We start our new year of school September 9th.
We
prefer to have the kids read classic novels for their required reading
class. I feel that classic novels help them expand their vocabulary,
open their minds to the ways of the past, and show struggles we no
longer face today, among many other things.
Amelia will be entering third grade this year. She will be reading the following books
and book reviews on each book. We are using this worksheet for each review.
Book list -
The Giving Tree
Adventures of Little Bear ( I do not recommend buying this amazon, I bought mine at a book store years ago, for very little. I would suggest looking at ebay for it. )
Adventures of Paddington Bear
Amelia is still what I would consider a fairly new reader, so I am keeping her list small. If she completes this list quickly, I will be having her read The Magic Tree House series, as she can.
