PARENT & KIDS
Why children like book reports?
Writing book reports will help your child learn more about what they are learning, find their next favorite series or author, and improve their writing skills. Reviewing or reporting a favorite (or not a beloved) book allows a child to learn to understand. It also offers him or her freedom to speak an opinion by writing and to improve his or her style of writing and expression. To write an accurate review, one that makes the reader determine whether or not to pick up a specific book, the child also included certain components.
The following are the reasons why children like a book report:
Help them understand the storyline of a book:
Book reports are the theme of a book. It has all the basic things that are written in the book. To write a book report they have to read the book at least twice. This enhances their thinking capability. The ability to think about a book will help the child relate events and themes and gain a clear understanding of the plot. When they keep thinking back, they also get a new viewpoint and pick up on stuff they missed when they read it first.
Book reports offer them the chance to tell their thoughts:
By encouraging a child to explain their answers to the book, they need to think about what they’ve been going to add in the analysis, and what they are going to take out. Researchers notice that the youngest readers are eager to tell you the plot, however as young adults, they realize that it may be spoiled for other readers. So then they begin to think about what they enjoyed and did not like about the novel, and this can also open up a fascinating discussion about the subjectivity and imagination of writing, very well suited to these days of fake news.
Book reports enhance the vocabulary of the child:
As with most of the actual story, writing reports can be a perfect way to help children grow their vocabulary. They naturally recognize that it is best to use a range of terms and phrases, so they are consciously trying to learn about new specific terms. If you read aloud with your child, they could always enjoy and follow the story, so you can pick books that might be more difficult than what they can read on their own, and you can pause and clarify any terms that you think they may not understand.
Book reports boost the confidence and imagination of a child:
Creative writing allows children to use their imagination to develop their great thinking and training. It will boost their ability to connect with substitutes. This expands their thinking processes, which can contribute to progress in many fields, including problem solving and research. Children also have trouble recognizing and voicing their feelings. By writing, children have a safe space to explore, and this can be a very useful method for sharing their feelings. That is why children like to write and read book reports. Writing allows children more opportunities to express and their views and to grow their “voice.” These advances will boost their self-confidence.
