Greeting Card ProjectToday, students were assigned a final project on A Wrinkle in Time, our summer reading selection. Students will complete the following book report, in two parts:
Think about the characters and situations in this novel. Imagine that one character is sending a card to another character. What kind of card would that character send and why?
*Be as creative as you like – use markers, glitter, magazine cutouts, poetry, anything you like!
Task: There are TWO parts to this project.
1. Create a card from one character in this novel to another character (50 points)
*Your card must be handmade by YOU. You may create your card on the computer, as long as it is your original work.
*Your card may NOT be created on notebook paper. Use white or colored printer paper, construction paper, cardstock, a piece of cut-out poster board, or anything else you like – as long as it is NOT on notebook paper!!
*You may create any kind of card EXCEPT a birthday card (sympathy, get well, miss you, thinking of you, apology, anniversary, friendship, love, congratulations, etc.)
*Be as creative as you like – use markers, glitter, magazine cutouts, poetry, anything you like!
2. On a separate sheet of paper, include the following (50 points):
*In one paragraph (6-8 sentences), explain why you created the card you did.
*In another paragraph, explain the importance of this choice and how the novel would be different if the card had actually been sent.
