All Time Favorite Read Alouds:
Starting with 3rd and going up, because they have the stamina to listen to chapter books...if you start a series the librarian will not be able to keep subsequent books on the shelves. Some titles work for more than one grade level. Check with your school so you don't inadvertently read a book on a higher grade's list. Some titles can be used for Literature Circles as well. I do not recommend a book unless I have read it myself.
Third Grade: Charlotte's Web, No Flying in the House, Muggie Maggie, Sarah Plain and Tall, Mouse and the Motorcycle, Freckle Juice, Sideway Stories from Wayside School, Bad Case of Stripes, The Day the Crayons Quit, Ramona, Because of Winn Dixie, Read one Boxcar Children and they will read the rest, any Shel Silverstein Poetry, The True Story of the Three Little Pigs
