It's very difficult for some kids and adults to talk in front of a group or audience.
To help with stage fright, I just posted this activity on TPT that I used when I was teaching in the classroom. Sharing a favorite book opens up the communication lines.
This activity is a wonderful tool for getting students used to talking in front of an audience or their class. It supports comprehension and retelling of a story or book that has been read. It also encourages the listeners to participate in the presentation by asking questions about the story or book.
This product includes:
1 Blank calendar that can be posted in the classroom for students to
sign up for the day of their book talk.
1 Student Book Talk direction sheet.
1 Teacher Book Talk check off list and evaluation sheet.
1 Directions page.

Enjoy your day,
