How to Select Work Samples for the 'Choose Your Own Novel' Study
It's important to ensure your child is getting every possible opportunity to demonstrate their understanding and knowledge of the material covered in every subject. As a parent, you want to make sure that your child has everything that they need to be successful. That includes making sure that their work samples accurately reflect their grasp of the subject material.
But, what about when your child is completing the 'Choose Your Own Novel' study?
Here's how Euka's 'Choose Your Own Novel' unit works:
When following the 'Choose Your Own Novel Study', students can still do the work samples for the term that aren't novel based. For those that are novel based, it will be a matter of choosing a piece of work that they have completed from the replacement "Choose Your Own Novel" study and using this instead. You will just need to change the heading on the relevant Parent Assessment Checklists to reflect the new task.
So, while other students may be completing work samples directly related to the novel, your child will still have the opportunity to choose a piece of work they have completed from the 'Choose Your Own Novel' study instead.
Choose Your Own Novel - Work Sample Example List
Now, you may be wondering which work samples from the novel study are suitable for this purpose. In order to help you make the best selection, we've provided a list of examples below:
- A summary - chapter or whole novel
- A book review
- A prediction, in their own words, of where they think the novel will go in terms of plot/the main character

By following these simple guidelines, you can be confident that your child's work samples will accurately reflect their progress and understanding of the material covered in their classes.
