Parents-
Many of you have been asking about book reports. I am excited that you are all so eager to help your child be successful! We are just now getting started on book reports and the first one is due this Friday.
Here’s the scoop… Students are required to complete 1 detailed book report per week. It may be completed at home or during independent work time at school, but will be due each Friday, beginning August 26th. Students in third grade must do at least 11 fiction book reports and 5 non-fiction book reports in a year to earn the state’s Reading Circle Certificate. He or she will continue turning in Friday reports even after meeting the RCC requirement, because each book report will also be worth 10 points towards your child’s weekly reading grade.
This is separate from the nightly reading requirement-however, your child is welcome to write a Friday book report based on the same book he or she has been reading each evening for the weekly required reading. Here are the fiction and non-fiction book report forms, if you misplace or run out of the ones I sent home today!
Happy reading! :)
