Case: Assignments with a classic novel
I have my advanced 7th grade students read a classic novel of their choice. I am looking for an assignment that will demonstrate that they read the book. Something creative would be great. I could give 2-3 or maybe 4 class periods for this and would like it to be done in class. If it could be something that isn't too challenging, also if they could work in partners (many read the same books) that would be great.
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
After reading the classic novel, students could create graffiti boards that reenact scenes from within the book. Students could be creative, and turn a long sheet of bulletin board paper, or fabric into a work of "book art". Students could work in a group to create the graffiti using paints, watercolors, or markers. Students could also create 3-D objects that would enhance the visual. This could then be displayed within the hallways for other students to look at, and get a glimpse of the book through art. |

| Comments: I think this is a creative and fun way for the students to explain and describe the books they read and also a great way to help the class to know what each of the stories was about if they hadn't read the book before. |

| Comments: I love this. It encourages students to be creative and think outside of the box. So often, I feel that, as teachers, we push content with such force that we stifle students' creativity. This type of project will encourage thought and allow students to marinate in their content before moving on. |
