[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Do you dislike writing in general? I would think book report is one of the least painful way of writing. Do you feel the same way with both fiction and nonfiction books? [/quote]

No, I like writing. Writing is a big part of my job. I also like reading. I just don't like reading a book when the purpose is to write a book report about it, and I also don't like writing the book report. I don't know why this is so difficult to understand?[/quote]

11:25 you are responding to a different PP than the person who asked you about this first. I am the original PP. Personally I think you think they are tiring to do, but actually can see the benefit of them. The new way to do book reports is particularly helpful in understanding books because children are asked to give opinions, make connections to themselves and really try to understand the characters or infer from the text in a non-fiction book. Not just listing facts. Being that you like to read book reviews, you must get something out of them that helps you understand that book better. Otherwise, why read them? While my children don't particularly like writing about books, it really helps them with their writing as well as their comprehension and even their social skills. There are obvious merits which is why they've been assigned in schools for decades and perfected as years go by.[/quote]
