ABC Book Report

Kudos to the class for finishing  their Comic Book Reports last Friday!

Done with one, and on to the next....

Your final book report for the year will be an ABC Book about a character in the book and genre of your choice.  Here are the directions and rubric:

May Book Report:  A Character Alphabet
Choose a character you liked in your book and then create sentences based on the alphabet scheme that demonstrate your knowledge of the character. If after reading A Picture Book of Harriet Tubman, you decided to write Harriet’s alphabet, it could start like this:
A is for the ABUSE Harriet took as a slave.
B is for the BRAVERY that Harriet demonstrated while making nineteen trips South to rescue slaves.
C is for the COURAGE Harriet had to leave her husband escape to freedom.
D is for the DARK that runaway slaves had to travel in while escaping at night.
