Today during Reader’s Workshop we had a “Book Tastingâ€. Similar to tasting different types of food and reflecting on what we like and don’t like, our students “tasted a variety of booksâ€. Students explored a wide variety of different genres, including fiction, nonfiction, historical fiction, biography, poetry, and more.
After reading a few pages of a book, students would record their thoughts about the specific book in their “Book Tasting Menuâ€. Then students selected a different book to “taste†and read.
As we finished our “Book Tasting†students shared that they really enjoyed the experience and know how to better select “just right books†in the future.Â
Happy book tasting to everyone. Keep devouring literature.  Bon Appetite!
