Realistic Fiction Pizza Book Report
Directions:
This book project is to read a realistic fiction book and create a pizza that accurately reflects all aspects of your book and provides evidence from your book for each story element.
- After you have read your book, start your pizza with a round piece of paper, at least 12” in diameter, for the crust.
- Divide the crust into the eight slices and label each slice according to the directions below.
- Fill in each slice with both words and pictures. You may draw, paint, or color your own illustrations OR you may use clip art or photos to decorate your pizza.
- The most important rule is to…BE CREATIVE! You can make your pizza 3-dimensional using construction paper or other materials. Think of other ways to make your project uniquely your own and to entice other students to “take a bite” out of your book.
- Be neat and organized. Need I say more?
- Include DETAILS! Quality details in your words, quotes, and art work determine the difference between the grade of a 3 and a 4.
- Have fun!
- Be ready to share your pizza with the class on the day that it is due.
