When teaching reading strategies, one of the strategies that often gets overlooked is making judgments. However, as adults, this is the strategy we often use most. If I’m reading a book and the plot moves too slow, or the vocabulary is terrible, I may well put down the book and never pick it up again. However, if I am reading a book and it’s amazing and suspenseful and makes me think, I’ll not only read it quickly, but suggest it to a friend. When I suggest it to a friend, I’ll not just say, “This was a good book, read it.”, I’ll tell them why it was a good book and what they will enjoy. So, why not give students that same chance to explain why this book was good (or wasn’t) to a friend? Grab these free Book Review bookmarks from my Teacher’s Notebook store and try them out with your students. It’s a great way for kids to work on a reading strategy without even knowing they are working! Put these into a center with a few new books, and just wait to see what they really think of those books.
