  14. Here is what you do: Pick a book a 5th grader would read (such as a Sammy Keys book) read it. Then on a peice of notebook paper write down questions (make sure you create the questions one chapter at a time) about the book. Read 1 chapter of the book a day with the kid. Have the child answer questions each day. Oh yeah you might want to read 1 chapter on Sunday so you have the questions ready.
