We created Book Ring Reports on these adorable felt sea creatures! This wonderful seller (Jesters Realm) on www.etsy.com was sweet enough to make one for each of my students for about $5 each. They were a HUGE hit!
The students each got a creature and they had to fill in the information on the Book Ring Report format. They looked adorable on the bulletin board in our room! Check out the Book Ring Report packet here!
It was pretty easy to get my kiddos to write a lot on this report! They could not wait to get their cards laminated and hole punched! I think it is so important to give a variety of final copy options in writing throughout the school year!
Enjoy!
