The librarian and teacher should have an opportunity to meet prior to this lesson to insure an understanding of roles as well as outcomes and follow-up. Listen to Jan Brett speak about her books. Narrow down to one question or comment. Example of a book review and the template are reviewed. Students collaboratively come up with a book review for one of Jan Brett's books.
Book review is submitted.
Posting of book review is critiqued and reviews of other books read to help students become interested in specific titles. Further explore Jan Brett's website for more activities which can be done in class. Book reviews of interest to students from the Book Nook may be shared on the morning broadcast. Book reviews by our students may be posted on our school website. Students may explore other author websites of interest.
