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.

Ant Story: A Graphic Novel

  • Life Science
  • Environment & Ecology
  • Comics / Graphic Narrative

Why it works: Ant Story follows Rubi through a graphic-novel journey that uncovers the mystery and wonder of an ant-sized world. Colony behavior, insect scale, and environmental hazards determine what Rubi can notice and survive, so the ant science is embedded in panel-by-panel discovery.
