Fifth grader Elliot smartly snuck 31 -- THIRTY-ONE -- books into his Best Book list by sharing his top five favorite book series.
As part of our end-of-year wrap up in 5th grade, I asked my students to compile their own #BestBookList. They could choose an overall theme or not. You can see all of their recommendations at #BestBookList. For individual book recommendations, check out our #iLoveMG posts. If you are looking for younger readers, #3rdfor3rd features recommendations from when I taught third grade.
