In 4S we have been preparing and presenting book talks.
Book talks are a small talk about a book that we have been reading recently. We find out the main characters, themes and setting and then we write and practise a presentation at home and show it to the class when we are ready.
We were allowed to bring a copy of the book and show it to the class. We were also allowed to have a theme for our presentation. Some people used puppet shows, interviews with the author, scratch projects and some even pretended to be the main character!
Book talks helped me to understand the book better because it made me slow down and think about the book more instead of just rushing through and reading it. They have been really helpful at making me a better reader.
