To try writing of a
different genre, each fifth grade student self-selected a book to review
during 4th quarter Language Arts class. Writing techniques such as
organization (leads and conclusions), sentence fluency, and not giving away
too much information were emphasized. Final drafts of book reviews were
published downtown at the O'Neill Public library where patrons could peruse a
copy of the reviews while making book selections in the adolescent section of
the library. Read some of this year's reviews by clicking on the
following buttons.
Good children's literature
appeals not only to
the child in the adult, but to the adult in the child.
