Let's write a review! 

In the testweek you will have to write 

So there will be lots of writing

Today you will write a book review

Which grammar will be useful?

ALL OF IT! 

Word order, present simple, A / AN, this/that/these/those

The best way to improve is to practice and that is what we will do! 

How to write a review? 

A good review has both 

information about the 

service/object but also your

experience. 

Bad reviews

Good review:

Gives factual information first, what is the story about? What can I expect of the book? 

Gives your opinion and explains why your opinion is that way.

Example

I read the diary of a wimpy kid with my first years, most

of them had already read it in Dutch. The book is about a boy who goes to middle school and tries to fit in which suits their perspective! 

I highly recommend this book to other teachers, the book has pictures supporting the texts and it is not too long! 

Your turn! 

Write a review of 100 words about a book you have read this schoolyear. 

The review must be written in English but it does not have to be about an English book 

In 15 minutes you will share your review with classmates. 

Let's share 

Find a person who is wearing the same colour pants as you are

Let's share 

Read out your review to eachother. 

Give the other person a tip and a top

Remember the tip and top that you receive because the teacher may ask you what you got

Newswise, what do you think it is about?
