Language Arts- Nonfiction Book Report Project and Rubric

Every month my students read a different genre of book and complete a creative book report that they present to the class as part of their LA grade. The Nonfiction Book Report requires the students to learn about specific topic of their choice, read a nonfiction book and create a 3-D model or visual aid and a true/false quiz to give the class while they are presenting. It also includes a rubric for grading purposes.
