There are many ways to share a book you have read with others.

 


          You have just finished reading a book,
          and your teacher wants you to share
          the book with the class.

                                        How will you do that?

 

 

There are many ways, in addition to writing a report,
to share a book you've read.

 

Write a play. 

    Write a script for one scene or one chapter of the book.
      Invite some friends to help you perform the play.
     
(Imagine you and your friends taking the roles of Harry, Ron, and Hermione as
          they meet for the first time aboard the Hogwart's Express in Harry Potter
          and the Sorcerer's Stone.)
 


 

                      Dress like Sarah, Plain and Tall
                      a character from the book.

    Wearing a calico dress and a yellow bonnet, you could
      address your classmates as Sarah. (Sarah, Plain, and Tall)
     
   As Sarah you might tell your classmates about your
         former life in Maine and how different things are for you now.
         Invite your classmates to ask you questions.

 

 

Read Your Report Aloud.

      As a new twist to a book report, read your report to
      your classmates.
        
If you want to keep the interest of your classmates, practice reading the
            report with expression. Make the book come alive, so that others will want
            to read it too. (A report on The Witches could be read with the Grand High
           Witch's accent.)
 

 

Remember:

Share a book with your classmates in a new way.
