How to Create Your Prezi Book Report
Step 3: Watch a Tutorial
There are dozens of great, short videos that will help you work with Prezi. Don't drive yourself crazy - get help!
Step 4: Start the Book Report
- Frame 1: Title of book along with MLA citation
- Frame 2: Describe the setting
- Frame 3: Tell about three (3) characters being sure to say how they were at the beginning and how they changed at the end of the story.
- Frame 4: In the theme frame, insert a picture that represents the book. Then tell the theme (what the story teaches the reader about life, morals, or human nature.)
- Frame 5: Illustrate what part of the story kept you reading before you fulling understood the conflict. This would be the rising action.
- Frame 6: Share the underlining (hidden) conflict as well as another conflict that you felt a reader should notice.
- Frame 7: What was the most exciting or suspenseful part of the book's climax?
- Frame 8: In the falling action, how does the tone and mood of the story compare to the tone in the rising action?
- Frame 9: How does the story end in the resolution? Include how you felt on the ending and what the author could have done differently.
Step 2: Create
Choose a template. Try a few templates, or create your own from scratch. This one is of a trip up a mountain. Just like the five elements of a story, you will write about: Setting, Characters, Plot, Conflict, and Resolution.
