There is such a need today to get kids reading and loving to read. Fourth grade is such a critical age for this as they are starting to dive into chapter books with captivating story lines. Getting good, current literature in their hands will help bridge the gap with so much that has been lost through learning during the pandemic. In fourth grade, at our school, we do book challenges throughout the year to get students excited about reading. We ask them to read 30 chapter books throughout the year. If we can get students to start and finish books, then they start to see the fun adventure that a book can take them on. Modeling a love for reading is also important. I plan to use many of these books as read alouds in my classroom, where we will get a shared experience of enjoying these books together. Some of these books will be used for book groups where kids will get to read and discuss a book that they're reading in a small group. These books will benefit students in countless ways.
