Book Report (updated on Nov. 22nd)
Dear Parents,
Every month the students will have to read AND report on ONE book of their choice from a wide variety of genres. The book report attachment is below.
Enclosed are 15 ways to present his or her report. Also in the classroom there will be a book report form. Ms. Squaire made a NEW form because the other form students could not write legibly. You can click on the BOOK REPORT REDONE attachment below.

Best regards,
Ms. Squaire
