Reading List Updates


It's been a week, so I figured I would give you an update on the boys' reading lists.  They've been super on top of it.  I think they'll be finished much quicker than we expected as well.

Krypto has the following list...he's read 4 of the books and is about half way through "Tom Sawyer."  During this time he's read plenty for school and other free reading books that are not on the list!

4th Grade Reading List
Henty - With Lee in Virginia
Henty - True to the Old Flag
Henty - Through Russian Snows
Yesterday’s Classics (YC) - Otto of the Silver Hand
YC – Poems Every Child Should Know
YC - Ten Boys Who Lived on the Road from Long Ago to Now
YC - Great Inventors and Their Inventions
YC - The Secret of Everyday Things
YC - Our Little Athenian Cousin of Long Ago
YC - Our Little Spartan Cousin of Long Ago
9/12  The Cricket in Times Square – George Selden  
9/14  Indian in the Cupboard – Lynne Reid Banks 
9/16  Jungle Doctor – next in the series 
That Printer of Udell’s
The Lamplighter
Ballantyne – The Coral Island
9/11  The Wonderful Wizard of Oz   
The Call of the Wild
The Tower Treasure
Tom Swift series – your choice
Five Little Peppers and How They Grew
In Process  -  The Adventures of Tom Sawyer

This is Gwangi's list...as you can see, the boy took off once he got it in his head that he could succeed.  The books that he has finished are all Level 3 Readers (Grades 1-3), except for the Children's Illustrated Classics book, that was quite a bit longer.  He is in the process of reading "Mystery at the Biltmore" by Carole Marsh and has also read a Magic Treehouse book this week.  I'd say he's about a third of the way through the Biltmore book at this point.  Bravo boys!
