[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also in FCPS- my kids still have been reading novels (even with benchmark) so I think this is dependent on the school. This is 4th/6th.[/quote] What novels have they read in 4th grade so far? [/quote] My kids read several novels in FCPS AAP, but it was never the whole class reads one book. The teacher would select maybe 8 books or so from a particular genre, send a link to book summaries and book trailers, kids read/watch with parents, parents have to approve all choices, and then kids rank the books they want to read. The kids then get sorted into "Book Club" groups based on their first or second choice usually, and have regular discussions as well as writing assignments relating to the books. This was 4th through 6th if I recall correctly, and it was several books each year. I was very, very happy with the language arts instruction at our AAP center. (I was happy with all of it, actually, not just language arts). [/quote]
