Our fourth graders need these novels because we are implementing an innovative reading curriculum entitled Wit and Wisdom. I want to enrich the lives of my fourth graders through exposure and study of rich literature, rather than just reading "selections" from a basal reader. The tagline for Wit and Wisdom is "books, not basals," which speaks to me as a teacher and lover of books, a passion I want to share with my fourth graders. Through reading the book "Love That Dog" by Sharon Creech in and exploring the non-fiction book "Circulatory Story" I feel confident that I will be better able to incorporate engaging, rigorous and challenging lessons that inspire my students to think critically in authentic and meaningful tasks that utilize essential skills to improve students' achievement in reading and writing.
