October Project
“Place Postcard”
Type of book:
Your Choice!
Directions:
*Select
a book and “okay” it with your teacher the first week of October.
*Create
a cool postcard that celebrates a favorite setting in your book. Begin with a blank rectangle
paper. On one side, draw a picture
of the place and write “Greetings from ______” (setting). On the other side, pretend you just
vacationed there and are anxious to tell a friend all about it. In your paragraph include interesting
events from your story. When
you’re done, address it to a classmate.
*Use
lots of color and illustrate/print neatly.
*In
very small print, “hide” the author and title on the front of your postcard.
*As
always, check your spelling and grammar.
Materials Needed: book, rectangular paper - a 5x8 index
card will be passed out on October 10, pencil/pen, markers and/or crayons.
