CREATIVE WRITING SPEAKS VOLUMES !
What have your
kids read during the holidays ? A funny book, Novel, a fiction book ?
Have they watched a movie lately worth talking about, have they played a game
that fascinates them ? Well, they can write about it in the form of a
book report.
Summarizing a book into a report speaks volumes.It tells a teacher and a
parent (if they are paying keen attention) some cool things about their
kids. It shows the kid's ability to comprehend stuff: story or material
that they came across ( via a book, movie, games, plays, libraries,
school, fun time etc ), It shows their understanding of emotions, some
fun facts they read, characters they came across and relate to. They try to figure out what the author is trying to
convey/where the story is heading.
When they are asked to write a book report (which is part of curriculum)
by the teacher or a parent, they will need to articulate what they
read. Summarize in a nutshell facts in the book, characters in the story
line, and importantly what they thought about the book, and why and
what they found interesting.
Teachers can also gain a insight into kids likes & dislikes, how
much they understood the story/material, how the kids creative writing
is developing.
Please ! Please ! encourage your boys and girls to
write about anything and everything they come across like trips to the
zoo, stories they read, about a movie they watched and what they liked
in it etc...
Please provide us constructive feedback to enhance this book report application. Thanks.
