Challenge yourself to:
1) read a book over Spring Break;
2) write a thoughtful 100-word (min.) summary (SWBTS method is encouraged);
3) post it here on Padlet //

Students that post a thoughtful book summary (original work only) will be entered into a raffle for a prize.

A straight-forward method for organizing your summary is to thoughtfully complete the SWBTS starters below:
"Somebody... " >>> Complete this by writing down the main protagonist(s).
"Wanted... "  >>> Complete this by writing down what their main goal was in the book.  What did they want most in the end?
"But... " >>> Complete this by writing down the main obstacle that they encountered while trying to reach their goal.
"Then... " >>> Complete this by writing down how they overcame that obstacle.
"So... " >>> Complete this by writing down how they finally reached their goal.

After these thoughts are organized, you have the building blocks for writing a short, yet complete summary for your book post!

There is this kid named Sean he is 12 and really wants to play football as a quarterback. There was only one problem though it was that the coaches said he was too short and small. He tried out for the team anyway. He got to be on the team as a second string quarterback. One day there first string quarterback had got injured and they put Sean in. Sean had threw 4 touchdown passes that day and 2 interceptions for 400 yards. He was really proud of himself. His main dream was that he wanted to throw a hail mary down the field for a touchdown like one of the famous quarterbacks did a long time ago. The last game of the sean was the championship game at the end of the game was his turn. He was on the field getting ready for the last play they were down by 6 points with only 30 seconds left and no timeouts. It was 3rd and 10 when he snapped it he drawn back waited for his receiver to get to the endzone and threw it. His receiver had caught it and they won the game. The team was so happy that they had won that game because it was the championship game. He finally met his dream that day and was very happy about it.
