In my classroom, we are almost finished with every book in our Scott Foresman reading series. To keep us from having NOTHING to do for hte last 3 weeks of school I decided to shake things up a bit. So, this week instead of having a regular reading story, workbook pages, & test, we did cereal box book reports. The students have to do a mandatory reading fair project next year, so what better way to get them ready than to introduce it now?!?
The kids LOVED doing this. I was actually surprised at how much fun they had! They worked with partners & made their own book reports on cereal boxes. On the front they had to write the name of their book & an illustration (one that was not on the front cover of the book), one side had the main characters, the other side had the setting, the back had the book summary, and on the top of the box they had to write the title, author, #of pages, & how many stars they gave the book.
I loved this project and can't wait to do it again!
