Author Study
You will choose one author to focus on for this project. You will read three or more books by this particular author. For each book, you will take an AR test and write a book review paragraph. You will then research your author, and write a three paragraph biographical report on that person. Finally you will present your author to the class in any way you choose (mock interview, video, speech, diorama, claymation, green screen, 3-d printing…) Presentations will begin February 9th.
Potential authors include, but are not limited to-
Rick Riordan Gary Paulsen
Ben Mikaelson J.K. Rowling
Beverly Cleary Roald Dahl
Judy Blume E.B. White
Jeff Kinney Beatrix Potter
Kate DiCamillo Dav Pilkey
C.S. Lewis R.L. Stine
