Book Review Criteria

I would like to thank the Grade 4's, 5's and 6's for creating a strong criteria for book reviews.  I look forward to our guest bloggers and their book reviews.

Book Review criteria, created collaboratively by Gr. 4,5,6 students

Blogging Book Review Criteria

• Title of the book
• Author and illustrator (if there is an illustrator)
• Reviewed by ___________________ (name, first name only)
• Brief summary of the book without giving too many details away.  Be descriptive and have fun with it.
• What you though of the book - detail helps (e.g. The pictures really stood out as they helped me better understand how the polar bears are being hindered by diminishing ice caps.)
• Avoid words like nice, it was a good book....be creative, be descriptive, share your emotions of what you felt while reading the book
• Tell us who you would recommend this book to (age, grade)
• Can you make any text to text connections or other connections....  If you like this book you may also want to consider reading ________________________
• Illustrations of your favourite scene or include a cover of the book
• Check spelling and grammar
• Send book reviews to vmartineau@sd68.bc.ca
