We have been working very hard on our inquiries over the last few weeks in language, so we have been reading a lot of non-fiction text. For your challenge this week, try to get caught up on some fiction reading. I would like you to choose a book that you love, maybe one you are reading right now at home, or maybe one you have read in the past. Write a book review for the class about the book to try to get them to read it themselves. Things you might include are:
A brief summary of the book,
The genre of the book
Favourite part,
Why you love this book,
What type of person might enjoy reading this book.

This is a BIG challenge, so we will keep it going for two weeks. On Friday, November 28, we will share all of the book reviews that have come in and choose which books we would like to read in our class.
