Well we are two weeks into your first book report project. All sixth graders have received their temporary library card and have checked out a book to read independently. While reading, the students should be completing a Reading Response Journal in place of a formal book report. We have practiced using the chart in Reading class while reading a short story together. After reading a section in their book, the students should record the pages read, write a short summary, and a response. Below is the explanation of what we are looking for in the students' responses.
Response: (choose one for each summary/section)
1. a prediction of what will happen next
2. a question about something you don't understand
3. a reaction to something a character did or said
4. an opinion about what you liked, disliked, or found interesting
