BOOK PROJECTS....
Each month you will be assigned a book genre, and either a book project or book comprehension questions. By the 5th of each month, you must turn in the Book Selection Form signed by both you and your parents. Points for neatness and creativity will be included in your grade. You may choose the book project format from the attached list. You may only use each project idea once. On the chart below, you must document the book that you read for each month and the project type or questions. Some months you will be given a "free choice". This means that you may select a genre of your choice to read for that month’s project or questions.The books must be chapter books and at least 150 pages. For biography, a minimum of 100 pages is acceptable. If you are unsure about your book, please check with your teacher. The projects are worth 50 points and the comprehension questions are worth 25 points. Remember, you have an entire month to complete the book project. The quality of your project or questions should reflect the amount of time you have to work on it! Most of the reading should be done during DEAR time.
