Independent novel study 

    Students have been given over 8 classes to work on their     book projects.  A choice was given to do a poster or           brochure that must include the following: 
  1.  Title, Author
  2. About- brief overview of what the book is about
  3. Rating- out of a possible 5 starts and why they gave it that rating.
  4. Connection to self
  5. Connection to another Text- decided together that it could also include a connection to a movie, tv show or other type of media.
  6. Connection to world
  7. A Cover Design or Illustration

    Connections have been talked about extensively in class.
    It is also expected that all components be written in             paragraph form. 
There is also an expectation that students will give a brief (2-5 min) book talk.  Mrs. Davidson, the literacy mentor, modeled 6 to 8 book talks for us. There is no need to memorize nor read from their projects.  Simply why they liked the book, what their book is about (briefly) and a chosen passage to be read by me or themselves that they have pre-selected.
