- Book Review Template And Guide For Ks1 English Creative Writing
Book review KS1 – Free printable template resource
Three-page PDF
This free downloadable book review template enables KS1 pupils to offer opinions based on first-hand experiences. Naturally, you shouldn’t expect pupils to review every book they read. However, encouraging them to reflect on their reading from time to time is a useful activity.
Book reviews provide valuable practice at using the subordinating conjunction ‘because’. This makes them particularly useful teaching tools for meeting the writing requirements of KS1.

This download contains three separate book review templates. Each one requires the pupil to write the book’s title and author at the top.
- Use the provided words to write a sentence about the book

Such a great resource and already differentiated. Thank you so much for sharing it for free, much appreciated.
Lovely resource, though the 'for boys' 'for girls' in the interests is outdated. Easy to edit however.
