Book reviews

Scholastic is challenging classrooms to read 100 books.  They will then donate books to those who don't have.  I have upped the challenge for my grade fives.  They have to demonstrate that they have read the book by writing a good book review.  They have until the end of May to read and write 5-6 books and reviews.  The first one is due this Friday.  The second will be due after Spring Break.  Their criteria for good book reviews is in an earlier post.  Their writing must also be neat, easy to read, and edited at a grade 5 level, as discussed in class.
