You can expect to see a number of changes in your child’s fifth grade class. In English, students will now read more Informational Texts.

In Mathematics, students will spend more time developing their understanding of specific and important math concepts. Students will be expected to both demonstrate understanding of each topic and apply their mathematical skills to real-world situations. As a parent, it is important not only to understand the new standards, but also to have the tools to help your child do his or her best in school.

Book excerpt: There is plenty of buzz out there about common core and what it means for children in public schools. Some parents are very impressed with it and love the idea. Others aren't sure about it because they have heard complaints and that it confuses kids. Some educators really embrace it and others don't like the idea of change. They also worry that it means they have to change their teaching methods. Yet there are plenty of benefits involved with the common core curriculum. As you learn about it, you will be more comfortable with what your child will be learning about. In the past, a big problem with schools is that they all did things differently. A child going to school in one region would learn different things than others. Yet they all took the same standardized tests. A student that moved due to family circumstances may find they are in a school where they are very far behind or where they are too far ahead. With educational standards in place, educators can make sure that students are exposed to the skills and the information they need to build on from one grade to the next. Parents can feel good knowing that their child is going to get a good education no matter where they have and which public school they attend. Inside this Book, you are about to learn the following information: What is Common Core?, Why is Common Core so Popular Now?, Be Prepared for Changes in the Classroom, Math Standards, English Standards, Evaluating the Success of a Child with Common Core, Working with your Child's School and so much more...

When their mom's boyfriend took them in, Della had Suki. When that same boyfriend did something so awful they had to run fast, Della had Suki. Suki is Della's own wolf--her protector. But who has been protecting Suki? Della might get told off for swearing at school, but she has always known how to keep quiet where it counts. Then Suki tries to kill herself, and Della's world turns so far upside down, it feels like it's shaking her by the ankles. Maybe she's been quiet about the wrong things. Maybe it's time to be loud. In this powerful novel that explodes the stigma around child sexual abuse and leavens an intense tale with compassion and humor, Kimberly Brubaker Bradley tells a story about two sisters, linked by love and trauma, who must find their own voices before they can find their way back to each other.
