Cereal Box Book Reports

The kids completed their cereal box book reports and I would like to share them with you. The books from which the students were able to chose include:
  • Beverly Clearly's - Ralph S. Mouse
  • Barbara O'Connor's - How to Steal a Dog
  • Deborah Wiles's - Aurora County All-Stars

As you can see the kids were given quite a few different options from using art supplies to Notebook software or a web 2.0 tool such as Glogster to design their covers. The sides of the cereal boxes are not pictured but different story elements and summaries were typed or written out as the "ingredients" to the story.

Enjoy!

These are GREAT! What a clever idea! The students did a super job of thinking about the stories and focusing on the important "ingredients."

The kids did a great job.

What a neat, educational way to reuse part of the cereal boxes.
