Fifth Grade

Fifth grade is the last year before middle school, and the best year to find out what your child can do alone. The workbooks on this shelf carry the basics; the novels are where the year actually happens. A fifth grader who reads Hatchet and then goes looking for Brian's Winter on their own has told you everything you need to know about next year.

How to use it: thirty minutes of math, thirty of language arts, science and social studies on alternate days, four days a week. Use the fifth day for a project or a long read. Pick one math book and finish it.

The whole year in one place: The Whole Year: 5th Grade.

Maker Comics: Build a Robot!

  • Engineering & Technology
  • Physics & Energy
  • Comics / Graphic Narrative

Why it works: An evil-toaster comedy assigns the reader six increasingly varied robots to build while the comic plot promises world domination. Motors, alarms, lights, sensors, and remote control become the mechanisms of both the projects and the joke, so engineering is learned by making.
