Book Reports
*Book Reports
- Students will need to read one book at their reading level every month. This can also be their AR or BA book for the month.
By the end of the month, students will do a “Book Chat” about the book. During the “Book Chat,” students
will share the project that they completed about the book as well as tell a little about the book. Students should choose
a different type of project each month. Please see attached sheet with project ideas. This should be completed at home. Students
should choose a book from the genre assigned to each specific month(s).
Accelerated Reader (AR) and Book
Adventure (BA)
Quizzes can be taken at home. Students need to read at least 1 book per month. Students have user names and passwords.
Ask your child what they are. Students can also take quizzes at school if they choose to do so. If you have any questions,
please don't hesitate to contact me. AR and BA links are at the bottom of this page.
