Book Report Fundamentals

Preparing to write, an overview of the book report format, how to write the main body of a book report, how to write a conclusion to a book report, reading comprehension and book reports, book report resources for teachers .

Book reports remain a key educational assessment tool from elementary school through college. Sitting down to close read and critique texts for their content and form is a lifelong skill, one that benefits all of us well beyond our school years. With the help of this guide, you’ll develop your reading comprehension and note-taking skills. You’ll also find resources to guide you through the process of writing a book report, step-by-step, from choosing a book and reading actively to revising your work. Resources for teachers are also included, from creative assignment ideas to sample rubrics.

Book reports follow general rules for composition, yet are distinct from other types of writing assignments. Central to book reports are plot summaries, analyses of characters and themes, and concluding opinions. This format differs from an argumentative essay or critical research paper, in which impartiality and objectivity is encouraged. Differences also exist between book reports and book reviews, who do not share the same intent and audience. Here, you’ll learn the basics of what a book report is and is not.

Below are some resources to help you succeed in summarizing and analyzing your chosen text.

Book Report Rubric – Free Rubric Maker

Book Report Rubric – Free Rubric Maker

Book reports are among on of the most common types of assignments in language arts. From an assessment standpoint, you can look at students reading fluency, reading comprehension, use of vocabulary. You might even be able to look at their ability to connect ideas if you choose to use other assessments like a discussion forum rubric .

A simple way to ensure that students are making the most of their reading is to pre-provide the rubric to them. After all, the tricky part about using a book report in class is assessing student ability.

Our sample studies have shown that students who are pre-provided with rubrics before they are involved in an assignment score 14-17% higher than those who went in blind. 

As teachers, we can’t forget that a large portion of student success comes down to students truly understanding  how they are being assessed. Fortunately for you, SUPERRUBRICs are simple to use and extremely easy to understand. Let’s break down how you can use a book report rubric maker to save valuable teaching time while improving student outcomes.

Make Student Assessment Simple – Try SUPERRUBRIC Today

Book report rubric breakdown.

mobile book report rubric

All great rubrics have set criteria that help breakdown the assignment. Our book report rubric maker breaks assesses students in five key criteria.

Book Summary (30%)

30% of the students score on their rubric will be based on their ability to comprehend the key ideas. Summarizing chapters and/or the entire book is a valuable skill that will require the student to infer, explain, and critique.

Critical Assessment of Text (20%)

20% of their score will be based on their ability to distinguish ideas and characters, while also examine the essential elements of the story. Students should ask themselves; Who were the main characters? What are the themes in this story?

Presentation of Ideas (20%)

Can the student – in written of verbal feedback, explain to you the main concepts of the story? Students who can articulate their ideas and/or draw connections to real-life scenarios are exceeding expectations.

Use of Language and Conventions (15%)

Does the student use specific vocabulary to enhance the reading experience? Are the sentences and structure of the report free from grammatical errors?

Word Choice (10%)

This skill is often not seen by teachers as a priority. What we want to see in students is the ability to read a new story and use the words they learned in their response. The students ability to source descriptive, academic, and transition words will help to reinforce storytelling experience and a high-level writing ability.

Completing these one of a kind book report activities, what is the "key" that i use to get my students to love reading and writing about literature.

  • I use engaging and creative book report templates.
  • Each of my students have a reading sticker chart to record the number of books that they have read.
  • I display all of my students' finished projects in my classroom.

It really is that simple and most importantly, it works! My students are excited to read books independently and complete their fun reading projects!

The students in my class read a new book and complete a reading response project every two to three weeks. My students produce a polished final draft that is unique in style, shape, and content. Since my students find these response templates fun and challenging, they are engaged and interested in using their best effort to complete their projects.

My templates emphasize reading comprehension and the writing process, and they also include an art component.

All of my students are given an individual reading file. Inside their reading files are: their book, reading sticker chart, book mark, and their first draft worksheets for their book projects. Students proofread and edit their first drafts on their own, with a partner, or with me before they begin on their final draft templates.

When students have completed the final drafts of their reading projects, they receive a sticker on their reading sticker charts.

My students are proud of their final drafts and enjoy evaluating their own work using my grading rubrics. They love to see their projects displayed in the classroom, and they later place them in their educational portfolios to show to their parents with pride.

All of my book reports include the following components:

  • assembling directions
  • first draft writing worksheets (the writing lines on the first draft worksheets match exactly with the writing lines on the final draft book report templates)
  • final draft book report templates
  • color final draft book report templates of the project for you to use as a finished example to show to your students
  • grading rubric for both the students and the teacher to fill out
  • five page color banner to display on your bulletin board

mobile book report rubric

Description

I like to give my students several options to show their knowledge on literature that they have read. This project involved students making a coat hanger mobile demonstrating key points from the book that they read for an independent reading project. Rubric is included. An example of how this would look is included using Romeo and Juliet because we had previously read that play in my class.

Here is the reading guide for students to fill out as they are reading: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/16KXysQjeBvKgjwuGtWhQm0IkH4Ef5Aggo_ZMYkHB15c/edit?usp=sharing (this is a freebie for everyone, so even if you don't want my product, you can have this!)
