How are these reading units different?
  • This unit digs deep into EVERY SINGLE common core reading literature and main writing standard.
  • The backbone of these units is The Socratic Seminar, which pushes students to have discussions with their peers, about the novels (by using the guiding and interpretive questions provided) while using text-based evidence and critical thinking.
  • Their thinking and discussion build a strong foundation of understanding for their reading responses (which will blow you away because of how much they grow throughout the year).
  • This was designed when I had no reading or writing curriculum: I didn’t want to just “hit” the standards. I wanted to dig deep into every single standard multiple times throughout the year.
  • This unit teaches your students about every single fifth grade CCSS literature standard in an engaging, though-provoking, and fun unit and all the work is done for you.
  • I still do guided reading, book clubs, literature circles, and Daily 5 in my classroom, so I know this can work with any type of reading program that you already have in place.
  • In this unit, your students will get tons of support and conversations from their peers, will be exposed to literature and vocabulary at or above their grade level, and become part of a reading community. Yet it still gives you the flexibility to work with groups of students at their particular reading levels.
 
What is the difference between the curriculum bundles and the growing bundles?
  • The growing bundle only has the novel reading units. It does contain all my 5th grade reading units (14 of them) or my 5th grade reading units (10 of them). Anytime I make a new reading unit, it will be added to the growing bundle.
 
  • The curriculum has 10 pre-selected reading units (all genres) but also 40 lessons to teach literature terms and informational terms as well. Some people get the growing bundle (to have more options for reading units) and then purchase the literature and informational units separately! The curriculum does not get additional units added (it does get updates though!)
 
  • If you are looking for your reading lessons and materials done for the year, then the curriculum. If you want more flexibility, get the growing bundle and then get the informational and literature units later if you need them.
