Book Reports Due Date Extended

This months book reports original due date was today, but there are many students who need a few more days.  I will extend the due date to Tuesday March 19th.  Please encourage your children to get it turned in on Tuesday so they don’t loose points for this home project.

We have talked extensively about the expectations for this project in class.  Many students have already presented and they have done a wonderful job.  I wish I could post pictures of their great project.  We had a wonderful diorama turned in yesterday for a book report.  I love to see the students creativity and enthusiasm for reading.

The children are expected to present their book report to the class, include a creative element (power point, puppet show, lego scene, diorama etc.) and turn in a written report.  The children are expected to include everything on the rubric in their written report and their presentation to the class.

The rubric was sent home with the children a few weeks ago and there are rubrics available in the classroom at all times.  I have attached a rubric here for your convenience.
