Cereal box reports!

Our class worked hard on their cereal box reports. Each student designed their own cereal box that described the book they read for their reports.  The students were expected to come up with a creative title or name for their cereal following the theme of their book. For example, Lily's cereal (for James and the Giant Peach, by Roald Dahl) was "Crazy Peaches" and Nina named her cereal (ingredients were whole grain hay) based on Charlotte's Web, "Charlotte Mix".

Adding a creative component to the standard book report assignment seemed to spark their imaginations. Our younger friends in Miss Tita's and Mrs. Wilson's class enjoyed exploring the older girls' projects as they shared their interest in reading.  The students also worked on developing a longer essay detailing what they read.

Our next theme for our book reports is exploring different cultures through fiction.  Check back with us soon to see our hard work as we set up a world's fair!
