Movie Camera Book Report KS3

This movie camera shaped reading response project will provide you with all of the teaching resources that you need for your students to write about adaptations that they have to make to their books in order to make a film version of the novel. They have to think about the plot of their book when they write about their movie's film location, special effects, stunts, props, costumes, lead actor or actress, and the supporting cast.

This movie camera book report set is divided into 8 writing sections:

• Adaptations That I Would Make to the Book as the Director: movie camera left main template
• Film Location, Special Effects, and Stunts: movie camera right main template
• Film Title and Lead Actor/Actress: movie camera left main template small box
• Supporting Cast: movie camera left main template small box
• Props: movie camera right main template small box
• Camera Stand: Favorite Part of the Book and Favorite Part of the Movie that the student created.
• Camera Stand: Title of Book, Author, Genre, and Student Name

 Students write the title, author and genre of the book. Then, they write their favorite part of the book and their favorite part of their movie. This title information and the two short written responses are written in a movie camera stand template . Next, students write the adaptations that they would make to the book as the director of their movie. After that, students write about their movie's film location, special effects, and stunts.  Finally, students write their movie's title, lead actor/actress, and the supporting cast.

You can have a cinema day. If you want to work even deeper, you can ask your students to prepare a short film to advertise the “movie”, based on their written book report.

I hope you like this idea! Have a great day!
