I included the Title of the book.

I included the Author of the book.

I included a short (4 – 6 sentences) summary of the book. **

I wrote about one of the following:1. My favorite part of the book was…because2. My favorite Character in the book was…because3. This book reminds me of…

I looked to see if there were clues in the book where the author was allowing me to make an inference and I shared my inference with my reader. (Remember an inference is when you use the clues that the author gives you to determine what might happen next, how a person feels, etc.) I asked my reader a question.

I ended my blog by signing my name.

** A summary includes information about the main characters, the setting, and the plot (what the story is about).
