This year I would love to be able to have students connect to their books by having them write book reviews that we can use to bless books and share our feelings about the books we have been reading. Last week I talked to students about how we are going to change book projects to book reviews. Today I sent home a note explaining the reviews with tentative due dates. The picture I have in my mind is that we will share these book reviews in a variety of ways, including recording our voices reviewing our books and sharing them through our class and student blogs. I am excited to see how this projects works out and more importantly, I am excited to see students engage in a love of reading! See the link below for the handout.
