MARCH /APRIL 2019: CELEBRATION OF READING SESSIONS
Prepare a short (5-10 min.) ORAL PRESENTATION (OP) about the book (s) or short story/ies you have read. You can book a date with the teacher. If you have printed materials to share with the class bring them the day before your OP.
Ideas for the OP (use ONE or SEVERAL ideas):
Ø the main events in the story
(but please do not include spoilers, your classmates
might want to read the book)
Ø nonfiction books:
summary of the main ideas and if you agree with the author
Ø main characters/ your
favourite character
Ø your favourite chapter
Ø read your favourite
quotes + comment on them in the book context
Ø why you liked it and
why the other students should read it
Ø a criticism (only if you didn´t like some aspects)
Ø compare the book and the film
You can also:
- Write a BOOK REVIEW (see models
on the class blog) to hand over to the teacher (deadline to be set later).
- Instead of a book review you can write a FILM REVIEW
of a film you have seen in English
- The BEST
REVIEWS will be posted on this blog
