What do you need?
A book review should have:
- The title of the book, author's name, and a small picture of the front cover
- A short summary (Spoiler free!) paragraph with a topic sentence and 4-8 supporting sentences that include:
- Setting
- Main characters
- basic plot points ( don't give away the ending!)
- themes/ messages
- Genre
- Your opinion: a paragraph that to convince others of your opinion
- why did you like it/ not like it? give specific reasons
- what books are similar to it that you've read?
- would you recommend it to a friend? why or why not?
What does it do for you?
You may do ONE book review per semester for 30 extra credit points.
When you write a review for a book that is from a genre that you've already collected 4 pokemon from, you are eligible for a REGIONAL BADGE.
You may write more book reviews for more pokemon badges, but you will not receive extra credit after the first review.
Your review will be posted on the board in front of my class for others to read and see!
