Writing a Narrative Book Report: Making a Draft<br />
Reviewing the Plan<br />
• Remind students they have been writing narratives in <strong>Unit</strong> 2. Today they<br />
will begin writing a specific type of narrative called a book report. Their<br />
book report will be on “The Hare and the Hedgehog” (including “How the<br />
Hedgehog Tricked the Hare”).<br />
Worksheets 11.3, 12.1<br />
• Explain a book report is not just a narrative that retells the story. For a<br />
book report, students should share their opinion and/or their impressions<br />
(thoughts) about the story. For example, they may write about what they<br />
liked, what they disliked, and/or connections they made (to their own lives,<br />
other stories).<br />
• Have students take out Worksheet 11.3 they completed as homework.<br />
Remind students the first step in writing is to plan. They planned for their<br />
book report by writing notes about the characters, setting, and plot of the<br />
story “The Hare and the Hedgehog” on Worksheet 11.3.<br />
• Review the worksheet as a class. Record answers on the board or on<br />
chart paper so it is visible for all students to see (in case anyone left their<br />
worksheet at home).<br />
