5th grade novel study

For the past couple of weeks all of the fifth grade classes split up for novel study. In Mrs. Neyland's class they are reading the book called Voyage of the Dawn Treader, which had been turned into a movie. In Mrs. Anderson's class they are reading a book called Hatchet a fictional story written by Gary Paulson. Mr. Lemming's class is reading Loser and Mrs. Guinn's class is reading Leon's Story. All of these books are great, and different in many ways. I am reading Hatchet which is about a kid named Brian Robeson. While flying to see his father in Canada his pilot has a heart attack and crashes. Leaving him in the Canadian Wilderness by himself. He has to live on his own for however long he is there which includes hunting his food on his own. One day a plane comes back to rescue him from his suffering. Novel Studies has been so much fun for everyone.
