Description

Grade 5 students read closely and compare settings, events and characters using specific evidence, and identify how reasons and evidence support an author's claims. They write analytical essays, research reports, narratives and opinions with precise transitions such as consequently and specifically, and choose words to create style and interest. Vocabulary work deepens context clues and figurative language — imagery, symbol, personification. Literature spans modern and classic poetry, Don Quixote, Little Women, Sherlock Holmes, contemporary novels, world legends, Shakespeare's A Midsummer Night's Dream, and speeches by Lincoln and Chief Joseph.
