They are aligned to the BEST Benchmarks for 5th grade. We unfortunately do not get to read a ton outside of our modules so being able to have books that relate for them to read in their free time is wonderful. With exposing them to these texts it builds their background knowledge for the test. They learn about theme, analyzing characters, learn theories about characters based on what they did, said, thought, or felt about a situation, comparing and contrasting the kinds of people they are based on other characters in a story, paying close attention when an older, wiser character speaks because those words of wisdom usually reveal something telling about the characters and possible theme and reading expecting trouble and seeking clues as to how each character might respond. \r\n\r\nThe students been on high alert for moments when a character acts out of character or faces challenges. They have read and reread moments when a character does something unexpected or bold. They have considered who a character really is and why they are doing the things they are doing. They focus on their perspective or point of view and how it is influenced by their age, background, family, race, culture, gender, and other life experiences in stories. They have compared and contrasted settings across a story and analyzed how those settings directly impact the characters and their actions in stories. All students have enjoyed the new books by being able to explore new worlds through books.","fullyFundedDate":1734622736491,"projectUrl":"project/floridas-best-books/8753430/","projectTitle":"Florida's Best Books","teacherDisplayName":"Ms. Hayes","teacherPhotoUrl":"https://cdn.donorschoose.net/images/placeholder-avatars/272/teacher-placeholder-4_272.png?auto=webp","teacherClassroomUrl":"classroom/7380866"}],"pageName":"schoolpage_73856","uses�ǿմ�ý":true,"infoPageType":"school","demographicsInfo":{"numStudents":536,"numTeachers":41,"percentFrplEligible":49,"percentAsian":1,"percentBlack":42,"percentWhite":36,"percentIndigenous":0,"percentLatinx":11,"showFreeAndReducedPriceLunchInfo":true,"showDemographicsInfo":true,"sourceTooltipString":"the National Center for Education Statistics","gradesServed":"K - 5","studentTeacherRatio":"13.1:1","demographicsDataSource":"MDR School","equityFocus":true,"titleOne":true,"metroType":"URBAN","ncesMetroType":"CITY_LARGE"},"inStateSupporters":86.0,"schoolId":73856,"financialInfo":null,"twitterShareText":"Learn more about Douglas L Jamerson Elementary School on @�ǿմ�ý:","schoolName":"Douglas L Jamerson Elementary School","canonicalPageUrl":"schools/florida/pinellas-county-schools/doug-jamerson-elementary-school/73856"}
