Blog reviewing books for boys. I am hoping this blog will inspire my students to read more and maybe get them interested in writing their own reviews. It's called The Last Word because I usually like to read the last few words of a book, first, and I always like to have the last word when I am talking about books.

Literature Circle Assignment: F Block
For three weeks you have discussed your book in your literature circle groups, but for your final assignment, you will be working on your own. Please post a comment about the book you read for class. Post a brief paragraph of 50-100 words about what you liked about the book or didn't like. Be specific. Did you like the main character, did you like the conflict he had to deal with, did you like the style of how the book was written? Be sure to explain why. If you didn't like something about the book, please explain that too. Don't give away the entire plot of the story or too many secrets, but tell enough so that it will inspire someone else to pick up this book or not. All F Block students should post a comment by Wednesday, November 10th.
