Book reports can be done on a nonfiction book that deals with some phase of this Anatomy class. Most of the time, this will be a biography or autobiography. You may not read and report on a reference type book. Each book report is worth 2% on the semester grade before the final exam is averaged. (Remember that up to 10% can be accumulated in extra credit each semester.) If you find a book that you think would be acceptable, please have it checked by the teacher before reading. Reports are due no later than one week before the end of the semester. They may be written or presented orally during contact time. |
