Outside Reading  Assignment for Sophomore Portfolio

 

As part of your portfolio, you are required to read a pre-approved novel.  To demonstrate your knowledge and understanding of the book, you are to design a visual aid that symbolizes what you’ve read.  It can be a poster, a scrap book, a brochure, a collage, an A,B,C, guide to your book, a cartoon rendition, a “mock” book.  Whatever your creative mind thinks up.  Your visual needs to include the following information, but is not limited to it.

These elements may be divided up into different paragraphs and placed on the visual, or given to me separately.  I’ll show you examples as a guide.  If you have questions, please ask me!
