10t to learn
Fourth grade students have been learning about the First 20 days of School. They learned how
to select books, how to enjoy silent reading, how to choose books, make good book choices,
how to think and talk about their readings, how to abandon books after they have given them
a try, and distinguishing and knowing the difference between fiction and nonfiction books.
The students worked together in groups to create a chart for "Making Good Book Choices."
They listed characteristics for easy books, just-right books, and challenging books. They also
learned that they should be reading books that are just-right for their reading level. (Courtesy
