Scrapbook Book Report

 

This report will be a character study of the main character of your book, and it will take the form of a scrapbook.  You are to create a scrapbook as if it were put together by the main character.

 

REQUIREMENTS

 

·       SCRAPBOOK COVER

The scrapbook cover should include the                       

   character’s name, the title of the book, the

                   author’s name, and your name.  Be creative as

                   to how you incorporate each of these elements

                   into the cover. 

          

  Illustrate the cover so it is a reflection of the main

         character who created it.

 

 

·       JOURNAL ENTRY

           Write a journal entry from the main character’s   

               point of view that gives a summary of the book.  

               The journal entry should:

 

1.  be written in complete paragraphs

2.  include a brief description of the following:

       main character, setting, major events, and

       conclusion

3.  be written on a sheet of paper and stapled,

               glued, or taped into the scrapbook

               scrapbook.

 

       Letter 1:  Write this letter from the main character’s
