Welcome to the New “Booktalk” for 2010

Wow! Can you believe it is 2010?! That sounds so futuristic, ”two thousand and ten”. Doesn’t it? Let’s start the year off right by utilizing the Morris GTLA blog. It is now open for booktalks. You may still come in to see me, but if you just can’t find the time before, after or during school, you may use the convenience of the blog to log a brief book review. The review must  have or include:

  •  complete sentences please and no “text” language! 

  • the title of the book

  • the author of the book

  • the number of pages you read

At the end of your critique, rate your book on a 5 star rating with 5 stars being one of the best books you’ve ever read and 1 star being one of the worst. After you post your review, you must comment on at least 3 of your friends’ book reviews. The first couple of entries will have to keep looking back to post their comments/replies. This is a fun interactive way to get the booktalk accomplished while sharing your thoughts on books you are reading with everyone in 8th grade GTLA. Have fun and happy blogging!
