Book Project for ANY Book: Reading Makes Your Mind Bloom (May or Spring)
Joy in the Journey by Jessica LawlerJoy in the Journey by Jessica LawlerDescription
"Reading Makes Your Mind BLOOM" is a fun and engaging resource that can be used to motivate students to read and deepen their comprehension, story elements, and re-telling skills. This packet includes everything you need to assign, complete, and assess a project that can be used with ANY BOOK! (picture book or chapter book).
The project asks your students to create a flower booklet that assesses their reading comprehension and understanding of basic story elements. The pages include:
1. Cover
2. Setting
3. Main Characters
4. Retelling: Beginning
5. Retelling: Middle
6. Retelling: End
7. My Favorite Part
8. Problem/Solution
9. Theme
10. Something New I Learned
11. My Rating of the Book (1-5 stars) and Why
The packet also includes a rubric for the teacher to use when grading the project.
Note: There are two versions of the flower booklet – half-size (pages 3-9) and full-page (pages 9-21).
This would make an excellent bulletin board display! Also, it can be a wonderful way for the students to get book recommendations from their classmates.
This is in a series of monthly book report templates.
