BookTalks - 2004/2005

(Book Reviews BY Teens, FOR Teens!   Advisory Activity)

A List of Files - and what happens when you click them!

Evaluation Form Word The "whole" lesson on one easy page!
Overhead 1 Word Doing a booktalk using the Advice to Action Model – this Overhead sheet was displayed first so students knew what to expect during the 30 minute Advisory period
Overhead 2 Word Overhead to show some examples of genre – explained not ALL genres were listed – and some book titles would fit in more than one genre (our goal here was to share books we liked – not teach genre)
Overhead 3 Word An Overhead ‘sample’ of what the students were filling in – which I filled in on the latest book I’d read (I had just finished Vizzini’s Teen Angst? Naah…)
Title Sheets Word These were cut up and put on the wall in the lobby to the library. The student reviews are placed under each category. (note: the ‘review sheets’ were placed on the same color as the title – so it is a smorgasbord of good reviews and riotous color!)
Reviews ZIP Zip file of ALL review sheets (8 to a page) for each genre category
Feedback Word Feedback from students of first booktalk
Teacher Memo Word Memo put in all of the teachers boxes asking them to take part!
The whole thing ZIP All of this (the above) in one tidy package!
