Due date: Tues., May 17 Pay attention to words and phrases, images, even colors that seem especially significant to your book. Create a paper strip that could serve as a means of prompting discussion about the book. Eventually we’ll weave the paper strips together to create a literary weaving reflective of faith as represented through the books. Each strip must include both a written and visual response to the book. The written response will include either a significant “snippet” from the book or a key word(s) or phrase repeated on your strip. If you include a quote or phrase, be sure to include the page number somewhere on the strip. Visually, consider color(s), images, shapes, symbols, and designs that seem representative of, or significant to ideas, issues, themes, characters, setting, mood, and tone in the book. Leave very little white space. Feel free to repeat symbols. I recommend not creating an entire scene, since weaving the strips together will cause you to “lose” aspects of your design underneath the woven pieces. Based on your completed paper strip, answer these on loose leaf and turn them in with your rubric. What did you represent from the novel? Explain your decisions (or design, symbol, color, words/quote) regarding both visual and written choices Group Literary weaving due T 5/17 _____ / 30 “Snippet” from the book or word(s) repeated that is/are significant to the novel Visual component is a colorful, detailed, accurate representation of the novel Written explanation on loose leaf is thorough to represent the novel Teamwork is evident (all members contributed to the creation of the strip) Standard: Interpretive comprehension I N _____ / 5 _____ / 10 _____ / 10 _____ / 5
