I. My Ideal Bookshelf Introduction
Many books we read affect our lives, inspire us, and help shape our identities.
What are 10-15 books that you love and have helped shape your identity? Create an Ideal Bookshelf that includes these titles.
I will show you my sample and take you on a tour of my reading life.
Task:
- brainstorm in your notebook; do research to accurately note title and author
- create an Ideal Bookshelf using template provided , drawing your own version, or taking a photograph of the actual books
- finish for homework
- Write 3-5 paragraphs elaborating on why you included 1 or 2 of the books on your bookshelf. This is your first writing assignment which will be used as a benchmark to assess your reading and writing skills. Be sure to apply what you have learned in ELA in previous years.
II. Share and Reflect: Readers share their passion for books with other readers and reflect on why books are meaningful to their lives.
Task:
- Museum share: list in your notebook:
- Who do you have books and/or authors in common with?
- Based on others' lists, what books do you want to read?
- Find 1-2 people you have a book in common with. Discuss why you chose the book and what it shows about you.
