Read Lisa Frase's article -The Importance of Reading Aloud
| Kindergarten | First Grade | Second Grade | Third Grade | Fourth Grade | Fifth Grade |
You could never begin a list that never ends, so the best thing to do is begin a list that is just the beginning. I attempted to list books that are ideal for a grade level, however, many of the books are used across grade levels. These are popular titles used to read aloud, teach strategies and skills in reading and language, and to integrate across the curriculum. As you build your classroom library, you will find many of these titles will become favorites. Enjoy!
