BOOK TALKS!
What is a Book Talk?
One way students in our library classes respond to the books they read from the library is to participate in a book talk. A book talk is a student's opportunity to tell their classmates about the library book they read at home. Each book talk consists of a summary of the book as well as the student's opinion of the book. Book talks encourage students to read for fun!
