Marley & Me Timeline and End of the Year Digital Storytelling Fun!
Written on April 10, 2008 – 12:18 pm | by jmeester
Hi pack (dog lingo),
There’s still time to read Marley & Me! I have one copy on my desk for the lucky person who reads their email and the LHS Book Club Blog, then hustles to the library to pick up what has so far been described to me by your fellow club members as a humorous and well written story.
Timeline: Meet in the library to discuss Marley and me on April 29th.
Also, all book club members need to create a written book review that you’ll post to the blog before May 1st. It doesn’t have to be particularly lengthy, just make sure it comes from your heart and you consider your audience; other high school students. If you’re looking for some inspiration, take a look at some of the reviews on the Teen Reads website: http://www.teenreads.com/reviews/index.asp
Your book review can be from a book that we’ve read this year, but this could become repetitive unless you let me know your title. Your review could also be one of your favorite books of all time! Here’s the exciting part – you’re going to become digital storytellers. Here’s a link to a voicethread (digital storytelling resource) that some of our parent volunteers have created.
Overview and timeline:
- Marley & Me book discussion (library/lunch) April 29, 2008
- Between now and May 1st create and post a book review (comment to the post created titled Digital Storytelling.
- Create a voicethread May 6th in the library at lunch. Come prepared to record your book review; I have all the equipment, you have the voice. This is our culminating book club meeting and event! I’ll provide the pizza and soda:)
