Hello all,
Our school week was full of activities that left us no time to review and get ready for the upcoming test. So, I sent home a quick project to refresh their memories during the long break and prepare them for the test. I have posted a copy of the questions so you can see them, remember they need to restate the question, cite the text, and respond correctly to get full credit for each question.
Here is a sample of the Book Report-
The categories for the sections are- Characters, setting, problem, rising action, climax, resolution, and theme. Please don't stress about it being perfect, they need 1 or 2 sentences in each section with an illustration.
Have a great weekend.
