A very DETAILED description about this resource set is provided below.

Sandwich book report project templates: teaching resources set, what's included.

Sandwich Book Report Projects: Your students will be anxious to be chefs and create a delicious sandwich filled with information about all the key elements of the books that they have read.

These sandwich shaped graphic organizers will provide you with all of the teaching resources that you need for your students to write about the important "layers" of their books. Each layer of the book is a different layer in this sandwich book report project.

Traditionally, requiring students to write about the main elements of a story is a task most students find quite boring. By using this uniquely shaped book report that contains sandwich graphic organizers, your students will be hungry and enthusiastic to start this delicious reading project!

This uniquely shaped book report project contains seven worksheet templates for the different layers of this sandwich project. The 7 layers are stapled together to form a sandwich flip book (see examples above.)

Each layer of this sandwich book report project is approximately 7 inches in height and 7 inches in width (see example on the left.)

Everything that you need to complete these sandwich book report projects is included in this set of teaching resources. All that you will need is scissors, glue, a stapler, and coloring pencils.

There are 19 printable worksheets and template pages in this set of reading resources, as well as a 5 page color bulletin board display banner.

These finished sandwich book report projects will make a colorful and dynamic bulletin board display of your students' work.

In addition, this set of reading resources includes 8 accent pieces in the shape of a piece of bread that can be used as accent pieces for your classroom bulletin board display.

Note :  Due to spelling differences in English (Examples: color/colour and favorite/favourite), there are two separate sets of  worksheets and templates included in this set of teaching resources.

You can select the version ( U.S. or U.K. spelling rules) that contains the spelling that is used in the country where you live. 

The worksheets and templates that are shown on this page use  U.S. spelling rules .

Assembling Directions:

This set of teaching resources includes assembling directions on how to prepare and assemble this sandwich book report project.

Below is an example of the assembling directions worksheet.

Grading Rubric:

A book report grading rubric is included in this set of teaching resources.

I believe that it is important for students to evaluate their own work, so my book report rubric contains an assessment section for both students and teachers .

When students evaluate their book report projects, they color in the faces on their grading rubric worksheets.

When a teacher evaluates the projects, the teacher circles the small numbers inside each box on the printable worksheets.

Below is an example of my sandwich book report grading rubric.

First Draft Worksheets:

I believe that the writing process is important and that teachers should use process writing whenever possible.

For this reason, my students never begin their book report projects by writing on their final draft sandwich templates, instead they write on first draft worksheets .

Next, my students edit and revise their written work on their own, with a partner, or in individual writing conferences with me.

This sandwich book report project is divided into 7 writing sections:

• Top Layer of Bread: Title, author, genre, student name, date, and illustration
• Bottom Layer of Bread: My Favorite Part and Illustration

This set of teaching resources contains 3 printable worksheets for students to write their first drafts on.

On my first draft worksheets, I have designed the writing line spaces to match the spaces allotted on the final draft sandwich templates.

First Draft Worksheet #1: Students write the title, author, and genre of the book. This information is written in the top layer of the bread.

Students write about the setting of the book in the tomato template and they describe the main and minor characters in the onion template.

First Draft Worksheet #2: Students write about the problem , complication, or challenge that the main character must solve or overcome in the lettuce template .

Next, students write about the story climax in the cheese template.

First Draft Worksheet #3: Students write about the solution and conclusion of the book in the meat template .

Finally, students write about their favorite part of the story in the bottom bread template.

Black and White Sandwich Templates:

This book report project contains 7 templates that are stapled together at the top to form a sandwich flip book.

The finished sandwich book report project includes 7 sandwich layers and each layer of the sandwich is approximately 7 inches in height and 7 inches in width.

Color Sandwich Templates:

When I am first introducing my students to a new book report project, I believe that it is important for them to have a visual example of what a completed project looks like.

I always complete an example of this sandwich book report project before I introduce this assignment to my students.

Before my students begin writing their first drafts, I show them my finished sandwich project. This visual example immediately grabs my students' attention and they are excited to start working on this project from the very beginning. I have found that my students are engaged and use their best effort as they go through the steps of the writing process and complete this fun book report project.

My students also enjoy hearing about the book that I chose to do my book report project on. This is also a wonderful opportunity to share a book that I would like to encourage my students to read.

To save you time in coloring your example that you show to your students, I have included color sandwich templates in this teaching resources set. I display my finished sandwich book report at the front of my classroom so that students can refer to it as they are completing their own sandwich projects.

Above: Sandwich Color Templates  7 worksheets that are cut out and then stapled together to form a sandwich flip book.

Free 5 page bulletin board display banner:.

I know that it takes teachers a lot of time to design and assemble their classroom bulletin board displays.

Many teachers spend their valuable time cutting out large display letters or making a banner at home on their own computers.

In order to help save you time in assembling a bulletin board display featuring your students' sandwich book report projects, I have designed a 5 page banner that is included for free in this set of teaching resources.

If you have access to a laminating machine, I recommend that you laminate your banner so that it will be more durable and you can use it again in the future.

Above: Sandwich Bulletin Board Banner 5 printable worksheets that are glued together to form a long bulletin board display banner.

Free bulletin board display accent pieces:.

EXTRA GOODIES: I have created some sandwich themed accent pieces to assist you in decorating your bulletin board display featuring your students' finished sandwich projects.

I have designed 8 sandwich accent pieces that contain slogans written on them that promote reading.

• Our Sandwich Book Reports
• Read the Layers of Our Book Reports
• Snack on a Book Today!
• We are Hungry to Read Books!
• Take a Bite Into Literature!
• Our Book Reports are Yummy!
• Bite Into a Book Today!
• We Have an Appetite For Reading!

I hope that these EXTRA GOODIES that are included in this set of teaching resources help save you time in decorating your sandwich bulletin board display.

You will be able to design a colorful and dynamic classroom bulletin board display using your students' finished sandwich projects.

These sandwich graphic organizers are a unique and fun way to get your students excited about completing a writing assignment about the books that they have read.

The writing responses that are required of your students will make them think and write about the main elements of their books in a challenging and engaging way. In addition, this book report set includes sandwich themed accent pieces to assist you in decorating your bulletin board display.

I hope that your students will eagerly gobble up this sandwich book report activity with enthusiasm!

Thank you very much Beth. My niece has special needs and will no longer be in public school however she loves to read. I thought it would be a great idea if she and I start a book club. This is a wonderful tool we will be utilizing during our future meetings.

So glad I could help! Happy Homeschooling!!

I really love your works! Thank you so much!

You are welcome! Thanks for reading along!

Thank you so much! I can’t wait to do this with my third grader!

So glad you are here!

Thank You!!!

Thank you for sharing so many free resources! My son hates writing but this will make it seem more fun for him.

Thank you very much for this.

I thought your fun idea would encourage my daughter to enjoy doing her book report more. Thanks for the fun idea.

Thank you! Cute idea to help my students become more excited about writing.

Thank you for the pdf. of the book report sandwich. I have a class of 9 intellectually challenged adults. This is my first time teaching adults and intellectually challenged students. This is perfect. It’s not too long and requires enough to know whether they’ve read the book or not. Thank you again.

Book report sandwich

by Kim Kautzer | Mar 22, 2012 | Teaching Homeschool Writing

ARE YOUR kids tired of the typical, ho-hum, “this book is about” book report?

Here’s a fun variation to try: A book report sandwich .

Preparing the Ingredients

First, make templates for the various  sandwich ingredients . Using similar dimensions for each item, draw the following elements on plain white paper. Then, photocopy as many as you need onto colored paper.

• Bread slice (2) – brown or tan
• Lunch meat – pink
• Cheese – orange or yellow
• Tomato – red
• Lettuce – green
• Mayonnaise – white

Creating the Book Report

Each “ingredient” represents one element of of the book. After reading a book, write the different parts of the report on the various sandwich fixin’s—much more fun than writing out a traditional book report on lined paper!

• Top bread slice: Write the book title and author.
• Lettuce: Summarize the plot.
• Tomato slice: Tell some interesting facts and details about the main character.
• Mayonnaise layer: Describe the book’s setting.
• Cheese slice: Describe your favorite part of the story.
• Lunch meat: Give your opinion of the book.
• Bottom bread slice: Draw a favorite scene from the book.

When finished, staple your sandwich together into a mini book you can sink your teeth into!

What are some of your favorite creative book report ideas?

• Privacy Policy
• Terms of Use
• Third parties

Sanctions Policy

Etsy provides a direct connection between buyers and sellers around the world. When you use Etsy’s services (we’ll refer to Etsy.com, Pattern by Etsy, our mobile apps, and other services as our “Services”), you are responsible for complying with this policy, regardless of your location.

This policy is a part of our Terms of Use . By using any of our Services, you agree to this policy and our Terms of Use.

As a global company based in the US with operations in other countries, Etsy must comply with economic sanctions and trade restrictions, including, but not limited to, those implemented by the Office of Foreign Assets Control ("OFAC") of the US Department of the Treasury. This means that Etsy or anyone using our Services cannot take part in transactions that involve designated people, places, or items that originate from certain places, as determined by agencies like OFAC, in addition to trade restrictions imposed by related laws and regulations.

This policy applies to anyone that uses our Services, regardless of their location. It is up to you to familiarize yourself with these restrictions.

For example, these restrictions generally prohibit, but are not limited to, transactions involving:

• Certain geographic areas, such as Crimea, Cuba, Iran, North Korea, Syria, Russia, Belarus, and the Donetsk People’s Republic (“DNR”) and Luhansk People’s Republic (“LNR”) regions of Ukraine, or any individual or entity operating or residing in those places;
• Individuals or entities identified on sanctions lists such as OFAC’s Specially Designated Nationals (“SDN”) List or Foreign Sanctions Evaders (“FSE”) List ;
• Nationals of Cuba, regardless of location, unless citizenship or permanent residency outside of Cuba has been established; and
• Items originating from areas including Cuba, North Korea, Iran, or Crimea, with the exception of informational materials such as publications, films, posters, phonograph records, photographs, tapes, compact disks, and certain artworks.
• Any goods, services, or technology from DNR and LNR with the exception of qualifying informational materials, and agricultural commodities such as food for humans, seeds for food crops, or fertilizers.
• The importation into the U.S. of the following products of Russian origin: fish, seafood, non-industrial diamonds, gold, and any other product as may be determined from time to time by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce.
• The exportation from the U.S., or by a U.S. person, of luxury goods, and other items as may be determined by the U.S. Secretary of Commerce, to any person located in Russia or Belarus. A list and description of ‘luxury goods’ can be found in Supplement No. 5 to Part 746 under the Federal Register.
• Items originating outside of the U.S. that are subject to the U.S. Tariff Act or related Acts concerning prohibiting the use of forced labor.

In order to protect our community and marketplace, Etsy takes steps to ensure compliance with sanctions programs. For example, Etsy prohibits members from using their accounts while in certain geographic locations. If we have reason to believe you are operating your account from a sanctioned location, such as any of the places listed above, or are otherwise in violation of any economic sanction or trade restriction, we may suspend or terminate your use of our Services. Members are generally not permitted to list, buy, or sell items that originate from sanctioned areas. This includes items that pre-date sanctions, since we have no way to verify when they were actually removed from the restricted location. Members are also generally not permitted to ship items to or from sanctioned areas. Etsy reserves the right to request that sellers provide additional information, disclose an item's country of origin in a listing, or take other steps to meet compliance obligations. It is important that members provide complete and accurate information regarding the origin of items on the Etsy marketplace to ensure compliance with sanctions programs. We may disable listings or cancel transactions that present a risk of violating this policy.

In addition to complying with OFAC and applicable local laws, Etsy members should be aware that other countries may have their own trade restrictions and that certain items may not be allowed for export or import under international laws. You should consult the laws of any jurisdiction when a transaction involves international parties.

Finally, Etsy members should be aware that third-party payment processors, such as PayPal, may independently monitor transactions for sanctions compliance and may block transactions as part of their own compliance programs. Etsy has no authority or control over the independent decision-making of these providers.

The economic sanctions and trade restrictions that apply to your use of the Services are subject to change, so members should check sanctions resources regularly. For legal advice, please consult a qualified professional.
