yes．then this article will help you make reading and reviewing books more creative for your class．In an age of PSPs，Xbox，anime and gaming arcades，reading has lost its foothold in the list of hobbies that children tend to cite． Most of the reading that kids do today,comes in the form. of compulsory books that they need to read for school and maybe that is the reason they find reading to be an insurmountable and boring task．If you want to inculcate the love for languages and literary masterpieces in your students and want them to devour books everyone should read，then a good way of going about the same would be to get them to start working on creative book report ideas．While working on creative ideas for book reports，your students will have to understand the book in a way that allows them to come up with new ways to present to the class，the essence of the book． B)As a teachel while egging your students to activate their creative gray cells．you will have to help them out with basic ideas that they can work on．Depending on the age bracket that your students belong to，the creative book report ideas will vary．This is so，not just because of the varying attention spans that children of various age groups posses but also because of the amount of work that kids can put into the report．While a middle school student wiIl be comfortable handling a handy cam，a student from elementary school will be more fascinated if he is working with paints and puppets．So do you want to know how to write a book report creatively？In this article．we will list out for you，a couple of good creative book report ideas for elementary students and for middle school students． C)A book report sandwich is a good creative idea for book reports．As a teacher you can get drawings of a sandwich on sheets of Paper that are of the color of the ingredients of your sandwich，for example，a cream sheet of paper to resemble mayonnaise，red to represent tomato and likewise．Ob． viously,each ingredient should be cut in a way that when assembled together,it looks like a sandwich．Now,give each of your students one of these book sandwiches to create their book report． It can start with the name of the book and the author’s name on the top slice of the sandwich．The second ingredient can have the summary of the book on it．Each subsequent ingredient can have a description of the main characters，the setting of the book，the plot，and then his or her views about the book．Once they are done with their book reports，they can staple the book sandwich together and then，you can create a class bulletin board with all the book report sandwiches on display． D)One of the good techniques to retell a story,it is also one of the favorite creative book report ideas among students．The job that the student will have is to read the book and then pick a few objects at his／her home which will allow him／her to retell the story in a way that makes it interesting for his／ her audience．Every time he／she picks out an object from the bag to report the book he／she has read， there has to be a valid connection between the book and the object，which the student can first ask the audience to guess and then go ahead and explain it．This idea is spin—off on the normal show and tells and allows for an interactive book report session． E)This is one of the creative ideas for book reports in which．as the teacher, you will have to divideyour class into groups and give them one book each．The students can then read the book and get together and write a play and act it out for the class．To give a deeper insight into the book，one of the students can play the role of the author and as a group，the students can try and recreate the thought Drocess of the author．The student playing the role of the author can then interrupt the play at lmportant iunctllres and talk about the reasons for these twists in the play and how he／she came up with these plot lines． F)As a voung adult，your student’s fascination may go beyond the immediate concerns of the book． He／she may want to understand the circumstances in which the book was written，the times then，the events happening in the world and get the author’s perspective about the book．Encourage your students to mink on those lines．Divide the class into pairs and give each pair one book to read．Let them then do the roles of the author and a journalist．You can have an interview session in front of the class．enabling them to dissect the book and get a peek into the author’s world． G)In a technology—obsessed world，it maybe a very tiny minority of your class that does not get excited with the Drospect of shooting a film．One of the best creative book report ideas for middle school， you will need to divide the class into groups and give them at least two months to adapt the book that thev have been assigned，into a film．The movie should have a well—adapted screenplay,and allother prerequisites，like a lighting engineer,sound engineer, costume designer,etc．At the end of the given time，the film can be screened in front of the class and then discussed． H)If you are on the lookout for good individual creative book report ideas，then this one could be for you．Assign every student a book and then ask them to start maintaining a diary,from the author’sDoint of vie w．Ask them to come up with imaginary incidents from the author’s life and use historical events to explain why the author wrote the book in a certain manner．Alternately, you can also ask your students to give a surrogate ending to the story． I)These are just few of the options that you could use to inspire your students to come up with creative book report ideas．As kids we tend to be more imaginative and creative .Encourage your students to mink om of the box and appreciate them for their efforts．This will help you have a class that is not only lively and inquisitive by nature but also a class that will cultivate a love for words． Teachers can create a class bulletin board to display all the book report sandwiches after their students finish their reports．

W: What is so interesting in that book, David？

M: Oh, Susan, it's a book about the changes in weather.

W: We certainly are having different weather this year, aren't we？

M: That's why I borrowed this book from the library. I wanted to read about differences in climate.

W: Does the book talk about cold weather like we've been having？

M: As a matter of fact, it does. It tells how weather seems to come in cycles. There will be periods of very cold winters and very hot summers.

W: Well, we've had both this year, haven't we？

M: Yes, and according to the book, that type of weather will last for several years.

W: Then what happens？ Does it just continue to get colder and hotter？

M: No, that was what I was afraid of, but the book says that after the very cold/very hot cycle is over, there will be a time of moderate weather.

W: What do you mean by "moderate"？

M: The book says that the weather will be cold in the winter but not too cold. In the summer, the temperature will not be so high as it was this last summer.

W: Will it last for several years？

M: It seems that it will. It's a cycle, just like we're having now. Then it will go back to the very cold and very hot.

W: I'll look forward to the moderate years, then.

M: Me, too!

o tell you about.

My life, by Joe Wrigley, will keep all fans of Joe's stories happy for hours. It explains a lot about where his ideas come from and gives a picture of what was happening in his life when he was working on his most successful books. I must say, though, that some of it is difficult to understand if you haven't read his other books.

Now, for those of you who like a good cry, Goodbye to the fields, by Susan Marks, tells the sad story of John, a small boy who has to leave the countryside he loves when the family move to London because of his father's job. John and his mother would prefer to stay where they are. It's a long time before the family begins to feel comfortable living in the big city.

There are plenty of books with helpful advice this week. First, the A-Z of photography would make a great present for anyone just starting out with a camera. It has everything you need to know to take really good photos, and learn about cameras, film, lighting and so on. This is not one for the experienced photographer, though — there's not much advanced information here.

Turning to the kitchen, Cooking for one, by Adrian White, says on its cover that even people who hate cooking will find it useful. A month ago, I couldn't even boil an egg, but now I'm producing all sorts of dishes, some quite difficult, and, yes, they taste quite good, too. I'rn actually enjoying cooking now. I'm now going to try a new book about cooking Italian food.

The last book this week is Holidays in Europe, by Mary Curtis. This is an enjoyable read, which will start your imagination working as you plan for next year's holiday. It doesn't matter that the writer doesn't talk about the famous places everyone visits, but describes lots of small places away from the main tourist areas. The maps are too small to be useful but the book is still good value for money.

That's it for this week, then. Next week, there's a special report on giving books as presents, so if you've saved up your money and you're wondering what to get for a friend or relation for their birthdays, you might get some good ideas. I'll look forward to talking to you then.

To really understand My life you need to

A．read it very slowly.

B．know about the writer's life.

C．read the writer's other books.
