Settings Book Blog September 22, 2015

Hello all,

This next week would be a great one for a big book because we have two weeks to read and at least ten hours on the buses. Choose wisely.

1) Title and Author
2) A short summary of the book

3) Share a sentence or two, directly from the book, where the author did a wonderful job of setting the scene. What did you like about it or why did it set the scene well for you?

Please post your blog by Tuesday at 11:00pm. Make sure to read several other's blogs and write comments for five classmates.

Here's the code to link up!

Character Book Blog - Sept 16, 2015

Hello all,  READ THE ASSIGNMENT BEFORE POSTING!

Sam and I are excited to spend the first two days of this week researching and writing for your incredibly interesting units. Hopefully you get the chance to either sleep in, do something fun, or both!

1) Title and Author
2) A short summary of the book
3) How did the author create at least one strong character? Describe why one of the characters was memorable and hopefully include a quote showing the character's development.
4) If possible, include a picture of the book title within your blog. If you can't figure it out, ask for help form a classmate or teacher so you can next week.

Please post your blog by Wednesday at 11:00pm. Make sure to read several other's blogs and write comments for five classmates.

See you Wednesday!

Book Blog #2 - September 9th

Hello wonderful students,

What great books you read last week and what books you will read this week? Hopefully the book talk on Friday helped you get a great TBR (To Be Read) List started. We will be having roughly weekly book talks to share the books we read.

In this week's blog:

1) Title and Author
2) A short summary of the book
3) Quote the first few sentences of the book. What type of introduction was it and how effective was it in your opinion?
4) Any warnings about language or mature topics (if needed)

Please post your blog by Tuesday at 11:00pm. Make sure to read several other's blogs and write comments for five classmates.
