Monthly Book Project
November's Genre is Historical Fiction.
November's Genre is Historical Fiction.
Each month you will be required to read a book from a different genre. This assignment will be a part of your reading grade. The first week of each month a new genre will be revealed. You will have free reign on choosing which book you would like to read. This month our genre will be historical fiction. During our last visit to the public library, Librarian Kelly presented an assortment of historical fiction books to the students. After listening to her presentation the students each picked a historical fiction book of their choice. Students who complete this book will have the opportunity to get a second historical fiction book when we visit again on November 13th.
Once the students have selected a book, we will calculate how many pages they will need to read each day to finish the book by the end of the month. The calendar will help students keep track of their progress. This month’s half-way letter will be focused on the comprehension strategies you are using while reading your book. The “half-way” letter should be completed by the date on the calendar. In addition to reading the book the students will also complete a project in class. All items pertaining to your book project should be kept in your book project folder.
