Unit III in Book Tasting
Unit III sampled books from different genres at their “book tasting” in Katey Parks-Goad’s language arts class. This playful event encourages students to try new books and explore different genres. The students spent about eight minutes at each table, which had several books in a specific genre, to look at the book’s cover and the author and read the back of the book and the first few pages. They wrote down favorites they “tasted” and why they liked the books.
