Independent Reading Project
Creative Project:
Come up with some way to visually present your book. This will not be presented orally. You will post this in the classroom gallery‐style. Your creative project should include a gallery card –with one typed paragraph that briefly summarizes your book and a second paragraph that gives your project a creative title and explains your projects’ significance to the book. Your gallery card (see attached sample) should also include any necessary instructions for the viewer on how to interact with your work.
Some ideas . . .
• a diorama of a particular scene
• if there’s a movie version of your book, choose a short scene to queue up; you should also print the excerpt from the book and your gallery card should explain how the two scenes (movie and book) are similar and/or different
• create a website about your book that students can go through on their own
• a power point presentation that students can go through on their own
• a board game that two students could play on their own—directions should be simple and printed out
• if food is important in your book, cook something that’s mentioned and bring that in for everyone to try—make sure it is clear why this is relevant to the content of your book
• draw portraits of the main characters or draw important scenes from the book
These projects should be neat and well‐put together, not something you work on the night before it’s due!
