Creative Book Report Display 📖

Have your students create an amazing book review display using these cute Australian animal templates. Students can choose one of four animals included in the resource:

• quokka
• possum
• koala
• kangaroo.

Ideally, have students review a book by an Australian author or illustrator. 

Differentiated Book Review Templates

Provide students with one of the two template options below. 

Option 1

• Rate the book out of 5 stars.
• Describe what happens in the book.
• Draw a picture of something that happens in the book.

Option 2

• Characters
• Setting
• Summary
• What is your opinion of this book?
• Who would you recommend this book to?
• Rate the book out of 5 stars.

✂️ Give Them the (Safety) Scissors

This template makes for a bonus cutting skills activity, depending on your students’ ages and abilities. 

With adult supervision, cutting skills help students work multiple muscle groups and their brains, plus:

• strengthen finger and hand muscles
• build dexterity and fine motor skills
• improve hand-eye coordination
• develop focus and attention.

And all of these skills are necessary to use a pencil and a fork; button a shirt and tie shoes; write, type and swipe.

Scissor skills are brain and muscle skills!
