Welcome to Day Four of Celebrate Reading Month on The Inspired Apple! I’m so glad you’re here! Today, I’m sharing a fun bookworm writing craft that is perfect to use for book reviews/reports, Read Across America, or anytime of year when you want to get your little readers thinking about reading!

Today, I’m sharing a fun writing craft that is perfect to use for book reviews/reports, Read Across America, or anytime of year when you want to get your little readers thinking about reading! The writing component is open-ended, so you can determine the type of prompt your students will respond to. I also know how valuable your time is, so this craft is super simple and requires very little prep on your end.

Objective: Construct a bookworm craft + respond to writing prompt

Materials: Templates OR Coloring Sheets, scissors, glue, writing paper (3 choices – lined, dotted lined, blank)

Directions:

1. Provide students with templates on colored copy paper OR coloring page.
2. Cut out templates OR color.
3. Paste shapes together to create bookworm OR cut out colored bookworm.
4. Complete writing prompt (teacher determines what students will respond to).
5. Paste bookworm to the top of the writing prompt to display.
6. Have students share their responses with one another or the class.

Where do I get this craft?
