A book report paper consists of several sections:
- Proper heading: name, date, and book title.
- Summary Paragraph: Three paragraphs which explain the ENTIRE novel using as much description and detail as possible. First paragraph should explain the setting and characters, second paragraph should tell the problem/conflict, and the last paragraph should tell the conclusion of the book.
- Character Descriptions: Choose four main characters from the book. Next to each of these characters' names, list five words which describe the character distinctly. If you use a particular word to describe one character, you may not use that same word to describe another character.
- Discussion/Essay Questions: Write three well thought out questions that a teacher might ask you about the book.
- Key Passage: Choose the most important passage in the book (in your opinion). Write it word-for-word in the book report paper. Make sure to identify the speakers.
- Key Passage Explanation: In a paragraph or two, explain why your chosen passage is so important to understanding the story.
