This weekend, think about parts that you want to include in your book jacket.
Some students may sketch out designs and think about the text elements they want to include in their book jackets
Your book jacket must include:
Front -
An original student designed cover picture that covers the entire cover
A large title (of the book)
The author at the bottom of the page
The binding - the title of the book and a trademark of the publisher. The last name of the author.
The back
a border art design
two different blocks of text - see the list below for choices
Some students will complete the extended book flaps (an additional, optional 10 point assignment):
two other blocks of text - see list below
Text or additional graphic ideas to include on the book jacket - all text must be student written:
- About the author - required
- a summary hook without plot spoilers - required
- two reviews of 2 - 3 sentences each
- an overview of other volumes in the series
- a list of characters or items that are found in the book with motives or descriptions of each in 2 - 3 sentences
- a fictitious start or a letter or diary entry of a character in the book
- a map of the setting (assuming that no map is supplied in the book)
- other ideas - with approval of Mr. R
