TRY THIS TOMORROW: SKETCH BOOK REVIEWS

Feb
09

The online literary and culture magazine, The Rumpus, features a regular series called Sketch Book Reviews—unique comic-style book reviews combining images with analysis. They would be wonderful additions to a text set of reviews to demonstrate for students the wide range of possibilities for responding to reading.

On their own, these reviews are mentor texts for them to develop multimodal reviews of books or any text or product that reflects their interests. Students can create their versions of sketch book reviews for albums, movies, shows, restaurants, games…the possibilities are endless.
