Project Attributes

School: Truman High School/Independence

Class: Strategies of Reading

Instructor: Jennifer Pughsley

Client: Lynne Baker and 1/2 Priced Books

Problem: Students in our strategy class read the book Hatchet and wrote a book review for the Half Off books store.

Students were given the assignment and were asked to take extra care when reading this book. Many of the students really enjoyed the book Hatchet and talked about different parts of him being lost in the woods.

My students were reluctant to write a book report but seemed to get into it after reading the book Hatchet.
