Instructions for Animal Farm Picture Book

Instructions:

Create a picture book that corresponds to the book "Animal Farm."

Directions:

You are to draw a scene from each chapter of "Animal Farm."  This does not have to be in color.  But if you do it in color, extra credit points will be given.

You must have a cover for this picture book.  Today in class we talked about the biggest lessons learned from this book.  Your cover must include the names of you and your partner, the title of the book, and one of the most important lessons that you have learned from the book.


Example:


Animal Farm
By George Orwell


Picture Book
By Mr. Blake


Absolute Power Corrupts Absolutely

You must also write a summary of the book.  This should not be no more than two paragraphs.    It should include the main ideas that we have discussed, and what the book is about.  This summary is to be written on the back of the picture book.

This is due on Monday, February 28th.
