“Bloom Ball” Book Report

Name: _____________    Mystery Book Title: _________________________

Throughout the next 20 days, we’ll be working on a unique book report both in class and as homework (if necessary).  The key to successfully completing this project is to keep up with your reading “circles.” Later, we will present our 4 favourite sections of our Bloom Balls.

Here is the timeline for this project:
Tuesday, May 28 ~ Students select a mystery novel from the library

                                for 10 days, including weekends.

Thursday, June 6 ~ Book is read by now and Mr. Bartraw introduces the rest of the project.

Wednesday, June 12 ~ 6 circles completed in TOTAL.

Tuesday, June 18 ~ DUE DATE! ALL 12 circles should be finished and you are prepared to present your 4 favourite circles.




In order to complete this project, you’ll need to complete 12 circles with the following information on each circle. The BOLD words are to be written on the borders of your pentagons.

Circle 1 – Colorfully write the name and author of your book.  Also write your first and last name on this circle. MY BOOK

Circle 2 – Draw a picture or map of the setting of your story.  Label it. SETTING

Circle 3 – List at least 10 unique or unusual words (VOCABULARY) that the author used in this book. Write the page number beside each vocabulary word.

Circle 4 – List 3 problems faced by your main character. Use complete sentences. PROBLEMS

Circle 5 – Write a poem about the story.  The poem can be a rhyming one or free verse, haiku, acrostic poem, a “shape” poem, etc.  Your choice. POEM

Circle 6 – Write a paragraph telling your opinion of this book in one circle.  Tell why you would or would not recommend it to a friend. RECOMMENDATION

Circle 7 – Write one word in large letters that describes the THEME of your story. Explain your theme underneath this word. (Example: HONESTY – my book is mainly about the theme of honesty since Aiden, my main character, is dishonest to his friends and family by… Later, Aiden realizes that telling the truth is important because…)

Circle 8 – Describe the main character in your story. M.C.
                    ~ Include a NAME – first and last, if possible.
                    ~  Also, write about the physical (looks, age, height, clothing, facial features,
                        hair,…) characteristics.
                    ~ Write a few personality characteristics (Examples: courageous, risk-taker,
                       adventurous, anxious, intelligent, a good problem solver, humorous, thoughtful,
                       careful, likeable, hard-working, easily frightened, determined, conflicted, helpful,
                       generous, personable, curious…) in your description.

Circle 9 – Draw the CLIMAX (point of most intense action) of the book. Add a detailed
                 caption, telling what is happening.

Circle 10 – In one paragraph write a different ending to the story. NEW ENDING

Circle 11 – Write a SUMMARY of the book – include only the plot and main ideas.
