Nonfiction Reading Log

Student Name __________________ Period _____________
Title of Book _______________________________
Genre _________________________
Reading Log for Nonfiction or Fiction Based on Fact (Historical/Multicultural Fiction)

⇒ When you tell where you found answers, record enough information to let you return to that exact page or exact place on the internet.
⇒ As you fill this up, remember that more logs are available in the classroom.
⇒ Bring your log to class as you are working on it. We’ll check that you’re working on it, that you have the right idea for how to do it, and help you with suggestions and feedback.

The parts of the log are --
Page # , “Facts” to Check and Questions to Answer, and Answers and further information
and where I found them

Example:

pp. 444-445 -- How old was Douglas? -- He turned eighteen in 1972. I found this out on pages 14/15 of the book Survive the Savage Sea. I found part of the book using Google Book Search: http://books.google.com/books?id=RJU5idLO9V0C
