Choose three (3) concepts / ideas / themes from your book and graphically show these concepts / ideas are related. From your work, the teacher will get the impression that you read and understood the entire book.

Steps to success

1. Determine the three (3) themes (themes may also be called concepts or ideas) for your book. What was it really about? Examples might be love, hate, friendship, stupidity, heroism, etc.
2. Determine a symbol / graphic for each concept / idea / theme. Be creative. Be unique. Be original. For example a symbol for love could be a heart, but that symbol is too common for receive maximum credit, too trite, to simple. You need to dig deeper.
3. Create a poster on 12” by 18” White construction paper provided by the teacher. Your poster must symbolically and artistically display the three concepts / ideas / themes. You may NOT use any words, except the name of your book, your book’s author, your name, date, and section on the lower right hand corner of the poster!
4. In your poster you must demonstrate how the three concepts / ideas / themes are related and fit together. Example, if revenge leads to death, graphically show the connection between the two, WITHOUT using arrows or equal signs.
5. When you finish your poster, you must:

• Write a 100-150 word description of your poster that describes and explains each symbol, why you chose it, and how it relates to your book.
• Write a 100-150 word explanation of how the concepts fit together and how they are related. Support the explanation with details from the story!
• Go BEYOND paper and pencil. Be CREATIVE. Use Three dimensional objects. Use color. Use graphics. Your poster must look like a poster, not a pencil sketch that was done in five minutes.
