📌 RR #3: Creative Reading Response in Google Classroom

📌 RR #3: Creative Reading Response

PLEASE READ THESE DIRECTIONS THOROUGHLY.

A creative reading response is a book response that uses your own creativity to recommend your selected book. It includes all the elements of a good book review along with your personal strengths. It might be something like: 
a new cover and blurb for the book (what would make a reader want to pick it up?) 
a movie poster for your book (what would make someone want to see the movie your book is made into?)
a graphic novel summary and recommendation of your book
a Minecraft depiction of important setting(s) of your book with a summary and recommendations along the way
or any other creative way to respond to what you’ve read. 
You will use your creativity to share the same information you've done in previous reading responses: what your book is about, who you think would enjoy reading it, and your own opinion about it. You can use any of the planning supports for the previous reading responses to help. 
When you've completed your response, you can turn it in physically to the library or attach it to this assignment (if it's digital).
Everyone should also complete the self-evaluation attached to this assignment when you are ready to turn in your project. 

Some examples of creative responses were shared in class and more are shared below. Again, you can be as creative as you want, as long as you include the necessary information -- don't feel limited by the examples.

Copy and paste the entire character essay into a new document.

You must highlight any changes you make in yellow so that Ms. Antunes can easily see them and compare them to the previous version. 
Your essay must be double-spaced, 12 pt font (Arial or Times New Roman).

You may revise your writing in class or in Flex, but not outside of school.

RR#2: Interactive Book Review in Google Classroom

RR#2: Interactive Book Review

For Reading Response #2, you are going to create an interactive book review on a book you've already read during this schol year for your 10-book challenge. It should be one of the genres we've already completed (or you need approval from Ms. Bateman or your teacher). 
You may start with one of these templates (click on the image to make your own copy and then work from that), but you should definitely creatively improve upon this model by changing the background and adding your own creative touches.  
Create a review that talks about the setting, genre, plot and action, and your own opinion of the book. 

When you are finished, submit the slides or the published link to share with classmates and the library. Watch the short video in the assignment if you need help with this.
