Students may respond to books through individual or group activities. Response strategies include talking (reading circles, class discussion, online book clubs), writing (journals, diary entries, poetry, news articles, reports, timelines), drama (role play, pantomime, readers theatre, radio plays), multimedia (wikis, blogs, video, podcasts, slide shows, web quests), art, crafts, movement, and music. Activity and lesson ideas can be found on websites and in journals and e-newsletters for educators.

Read the “Reading Response Strategies” handout before beginning this worksheet. You’ll need to refer to that information often as you complete this task. From the websites below, choose a total of five children’s books.  For each of the five books:

1. Find an online lesson plan or classroom activity based on each book. Provide the title of, and the link for, each activity. If you cannot find a link to an activity or lesson plan, choose another book. For each book, specify the genre of the book and the type of activity.

2. Provide complete bibliographic information in MLA style. To get needed bibliographic information, search the book titles on 
WorldCatLinks to an external site.. 

3. Write a one-sentence description of the book. Note the book’s genre: traditional literature, contemporary realistic fiction, historical fiction, fantasy/science fiction, biography or nonfiction/informational.

4. Indicate what type of response strategy your online activity or lesson represents.
