The mystery books in this collection give children a chance to learn and practice envisioning, predicting, monitoring for sense, retelling, summarizing, and synthesizing. While immersing themselves in these engaging books, students will need to keep track of multiple suspects, giving them an opportunity to think about secondary characters, not just the main character. This helps students prepare to read more challenging fiction with richer characters, plots, and themes later on.
The books in this library shelf are also included in the complete Grade 4 Classroom Library. For complete details about the Teachers College Reading and Writing Project Classroom Libraries please visit CalkinsLibraries.com.
