2017-18 Grades 3-5 Florida SSYRA Test Questions

The Sunshine State Young Readers Award (SSYRA) Program is a statewide reading motivational program for students in grades 3 through 8, in a collaborative effort between the Florida Association of Media in Education (FAME) and the Florida Department of Education (DOE). The purpose of the SSYRA Program is to encourage students to read independently for pleasure and to read books that are on, above, and below their reading level in order to improve their reading fluency. Sunshine State books are selected for their wide appeal, literary value, varied genres, curriculum connections, and/or multicultural representation. This year's fifteen Grades 3-5 titles are: A Whole New Ballgame; Allie, First At Last; Castle Hangnail; A Dragon's Guide To The Care And Feeding Of Humans; Framed!; Maxi's Secrets (Or, What You Can Learn From A Dog); My Brother Is A Superhero; Night Of The Living Worms; Pugs Of The Frozen North; Save Me A Seat, Teddy Mars: Almost A World Record Breaker; The Hero Two Doors Down; The Vanishing Coin; The Wild Robot; and Willy Maykit In Space. These test questions were written to enhance your district or school SSYRA book competitions.
