Book Talk – Peer Review
Book Talk
Choose a book you read to share with the class. This is an oral presentation and you will be evaluated on content and delivery (Remember PVLEGS). It is a good idea to “hook” your audience with a significant quote from the book. In addition, you can read a short, important passage to entice your audience to want to read this book. The purpose of a book talk is to sell the book.
Make sure to have the book with you!
Don’t forget to TAG! (Title-Author-Genre)
REQUIREMENTS:
Summary of the book (without ending or other surprises/twists), include:
❖ Setting – where & when and how you know
❖ Main character(s) – descriptions that include physical and personality traits
❖ Conflict – what was the main problem and what type of conflict is it?
❖ Plot – summary of the idea of the book
❖ Point of view – who’s telling the story? First person or third person?
❖ Genre – action/adventure, fantasy, science fiction, realistic fiction mystery/suspense, historical fiction, biography, autobiography, informational
Review includes:
❖ Rating of book
❖ Explanation of rating (why you gave it the score you did)
❖ Who would be most likely to enjoy or not enjoy reading this book
Visual Aid
This is something you create to give the class an image of your book. It should help your classmates learn about the book you are sharing. Some possibilities are a PowerPoint, Prezi, or Google Slides. There are other options too. Be creative, but remember LESS IS MORE. This part will be evaluated on neatness, visual appeal, and relationship to what you share in your talk.
**PLEASE NOTE: YOU WILL NOT USE THE VISUAL AID TO READ FROM. IT IS MEANT TO ASSIST YOU AS PART OF YOUR PRESENTATION.
Steps: (Check off each one as you complete it.)
______ Choose a book
______ Write down your ideas for each part of the requirements listed above
______ Create your visual aid
______ Practice your talk, then practice some more.
______ Check to make sure you’ve included all the requirements and evaluate yourself on the rubric to see if there’s anything you want to add or revise.
