6th and 7th graders, please come prepared to present your book talk on Tuesday, when we come back from Memorial Day weekend. The presentation should be at least one minute, but no longer than 2, so practice at home first! Look at the rubric below for what to do:
| Was it well written? Why do you think so. Be specific! | Evaluation | 5 points |
| What was the best part? | Favorite Passage | 5 point |
| 3-5 printed pictures on a poster board | Visual—a collage of images from the book (characters, setting, theme, symbolism used in the story, etc.) | 5 points |
| What is the book about? | Book Summary | 5 point |
| Did you like it? Why or why not. Do you think others should read it? | Recommendation | 5 points |
| Presenting in class (1-2 minutes) | Total for book talk | 10 points |
| Total Points | Projects are summative points! Please take presenting seriously. Come prepared, and do not read off of your paper/poster. | 35 points |
