=Book Groups are coming the week of May 14th! The books have been chosen because the teacher loves them :) Here is more information on each book - be thinking about which book you'd like to read.=

Liberation of Gabriel King by K. L. Going
**Gabriel King believes he was born chicken. He's afraid of spiders, corpses, loose cows, and just about everything related to the fifth grade. If it's a choice between raduating or staying in the fourth grade forever, he's going to stay put ─ only his best friend Frita Wilson won't hear of it.**
 * "Gabe," says Frita, "we gotta do something about you." When Frita makes up her mind she's like a locomotive - there's no stopping her. "First you're going to make a list. **


 * Write down everything you're afraid of." **


 * Gabe's list is a lot longer than he'd like Frita to know. Plus, he can't quite figure out how tackling his fears will make him brave. Surely jumping off the rope swing over the catfish pond can only lead to certain death...But maybe Frita knows what she's doing. It turns out she's got her own list, and while she's watching Gabe tackle each of his fears, she's avoiding the fear that scares her the most.**

RULES by Cynthia Lord

 * Twelve-year-old Catherine just wants a normal life. Which is near impossible when you have a brother with autism and a family that revolves around his disability. She's spent years trying to teach David the rules from "a peach is not a funny-looking apple" to "keep your pants on in public"---in order to head off David's embarrassing behaviors.**
 * But the summer Catherine meets Jason, a surprising, new sort-of friend, and Kristi, the next-door friend she's always wished for, it's her own shocking behavior that turns everything upside down and forces her to ask: What is normal?**


 * You will enjoy reading this book if:**
 * You are part of a family**
 * You have ever had friends**
 * You enjoy reading about kids who are similar to you and those who have differences**
 * You enjoy realistic fiction set in the current time with main characters about your age**
 * You enjoy reading books with complex ideas and readable words**

Maniac Magee by Jerry Spinelli

 * He wasn't born with the name Maniac Magee. He came into this world named Jeffrey Lionel Magee, but when his parents died and his life changed, so did his name. And Maniac Magee became a legend. Even today kids talk about how fast he could run; about how he hit an inside-the-park "frog" homer; how no knot, no matter how snarled, would stay that way once he began to untie it. But the thing Mania Magee is best known for is what he did for the kids from the East Side and those from the West Side. **
 * He was special all right, and this is his story, and it's a story that is very careful not to let the facts get mixed up with the truth. **

When You Reach Me by Rebecca Searle
This remarkable novel holds a fantastic puzzle at its heart.

By sixth grade, Miranda and her best friend, Sal, know how to navigate their New York City neighborhood. They know where it's safe to go, and they know who to avoid. Like the crazy guy on the corner.

But things start to unravel. Sal gets punched by a kid on the street for what seems like no reason, and he shuts Miranda out of his life. The apartment key that Miranda's mom keeps hidden for emergencies is stolen. And then a mysterious note arrives, scrawled on a tiny slip of paper. The notes keep coming, and Miranda slowly realizes that whoever is leaving them knows things no one should know. Each message brings her closer to believing that only she can prevent a tragic death. Until the final note makes her think she's too late.

Hatchet by Gary Paulsen
Since it was first published in 1987, the story of thirteen-year-old Brian Robeson's survival following a plane crash has become a modern classic. Stranded in the desolate wilderness, Brian uses his instincts and his hatchet to stay alive for fifty-four harrowing days. This twentieth-anniversary edition of //Hatchet// contains a new introduction and sidebar commentary by Gary Paulsen, written especially for this volume. Drew Willis's detailed pen-and-ink illustrations complement the descriptions in the text and add a new dimension to the book. This handsome edition of the Newbery Honor book will be treasured by //Hatchet// fans as well as by readers encountering Brian's unforgettable story for the first time.

=Here are websites/apps that we like:= =[|www.spellingcity.com]= Students can search for this week's spelling list or just play random spelling games. The games need flash so students can only play them on a computer. Spelling tests, paragraph writing and sentence writing will all work on the iPad. To search they click on students and then **find a list**, they enter Kathy DeLucia in the advanced search box. It will show me as a teacher at Boynton. They select me and then choose the correct list. They should know what list it is.

You Spilled the Milk

By David Hayes

Boom Bam Slam Crash!

You spilled the milk

Do you know what I have to do now?

I have to get you a new glass of milk

Do you know how far away that is?

It's as far as the North Pole

Now you have to wait forever and a day

For me to come back with the magical milk!
