“All 7th and 8th grade literature classes have two independent book reports for the school year, each one due at the end of each semester. They are supposed to be creative and not just write a traditional book report. I give them many options, such as a scrapbook, diorama, PowerPoint presentation, and many more. They also have to incorporate the items from a detailed rubric into their project. Elements such as point of view, theme, conflict, setting, etc… I had some really good ones this year, especially since they are home and using materials they have at their disposal.” -Mrs. Karen Beggs
