Word collage. Write the title of the book in the center of a sheet of paper. Then look through magazines for words, phrases, and sentences that illustrate or tell something about your book. As you look, think in terms of the theme, setting, plot line, as well as characters. Work to get fifty such words, phrases, or sentences so the whole sheet of paper will be covered. The visual impact of the collage should tell a potential reader a lot about the book. Pass in a one page (Typed, Font 12, TNR, Double Spaced) reflection of how your collage went, what elements of the novel you tried to focus on, what you want your collage to say about the novel, etc. Theme Display.  Create a physical display (poster, graphic comic, sculpture, painting) which clearly illustrates the theme of the novel.  It cannot be computer generated.  Pass in a one and a half page (Typed, Font 12, TNR, Double Spaced) explanation of how your piece captures the theme and what elements of the novel inspired you to create what you did.
