Room 123’s Review of Books
First grade writers used all their powers of persuasion when writing book reviews!
Students first analyzed published book reviews to identify the elements included in good reviews. Next, they worked in groups to write their reviews. Finally–after lots of rehearsals–they recorded them.
As you check out their reviews below, listen for a lead that hooks the audience’s attention, information about the book, what makes it a good book, and what the audience can do next. Enjoy, and consider taking their advice!
