A Book Sandwich Book Report—DUE May 6
Directions: Please choose a chapter book of any genre to read. After you read the book, you will make a book sandwich, using Pixie on the iPad. Keep the background white but use colors for the design. Your total book report should include 3 pages: top bread and lettuce on page 1, tomato and cheese on page 2, meat and bottom bread on page 3. You must follow the guidelines given below:
· Top Bread: title, author and student's name
· Lettuce: description of the main character
· Tomato: description of the setting
· Cheese: conflict (major problem)
· Meat: resolution to conflict (solution to problem)
· Bottom Bread: your opinion of the book
After you create your sandwich, you will need to record yourself reading the book report using the record feature of Pixie. Make sure you listen to your recording, too. BE CREATIVE and HAVE FUN!
