I use this to encourage my children, my free readers, to read novels and report back on them. They retrieve sheet from me once finished a book and I read review once they have written it, to check. They are filed into a class wallet folder for all children to read. The class often use this independently to find a 'new book&' that their peers have recommended, should they be struggling to find one for themselves. I researched book review templates out there and couldn&';t find one I was happy with. This is my version.

I set this for my low-ability year 7 class just before the half-term break (holiday homework!), but you can use this lesson at any point throughout the term. A lesson that introduces book reviews and provides students with a checklist for writing their own. The worksheet helps students understand how to structure their review. Enjoy!

This interesting and engaging lesson enables students to know what reviews are and why people read them, understand the features that make effective reviews, and write their own interesting and appropriate reviews.

Book Review

This book review template is not just about summarising and re-writing. First the comprehension of the book your kiddos have read is grasped. Once sheet one is completed and has been checked by the teacher they can move on to creating their book review booklet. Comprehension page The comprehension page ask your students to summarise key parts. I recommend asking them to use bullet points as this will be easier to go back and double check. Review Booklet The booklet review will print on letter size paper and fold into four. Once the parts have been filled out your kiddos can decorate the cover and other parts by coloring sections in.
