Below is our inaugural #KidLitReview post of One For The Murphys by Linda Mullaly Hunt from our classroom. The grade 6 students in our class will have an option of completing a blog entries or a 1-2 minute video blog reviews of a youth fiction or non-fiction books of their choice. I completed the first video blog post below to model for students the expectations for the blog.
Please check back to our Class Blog as students will be posting frequently their #KidLitReviews of books of their choosing. If you are an author interested in having one of my grade 6 students review your novel please send me a note here. I assure you the students are passionate about reading and are excited at the opportunity of making their mark and having their opinions heard and inspiring other classes and young readers by sharing their posts with our class twitter and instagram accounts under my guidance. The students have individual and collective reading goals and are excited to share their passion with the world. The students have a collective goal of reading 990 book this year. Currently they have read 136 books. Any inspiration and advice you can provide to the young authors and readers in our class would be welcomed.
Keep reading and enjoy the #KidLitReview reviews.
