Further Ideas for This Book Review Template

Looking for variations on how you might use this book review template with your students?

Why not make the review a buddy activity between a younger and an older student? Have the older student read the younger student one of their favourite books, then have the students fill out the review template together. Encourage the students to discuss each question and compare their opinions.

Alternatively, have students complete the activity by reading a book at home with a parent or carer and then completing a shared review of the text.
