Create a diary with a few entries that relate to events that happened in the book. Also,write a monologue in one of the characters percpective that is not Janie (perhaps in Joe's perspective).
ReplyDeleteVisual Art: draw/paint a scene from the book, make a collage of important people/things in the novel.
ReplyDeleteA creative project could be to come up with a a piece of music, instrumental or lyrical, that could be Janie's theme throughout the novel.
ReplyDeleteAs a creative writing major and a piano major, I'd say that two projects that could work for the final assessment would be composing a piece for one of the characters that represents their personality and how I interpreted them. I'd also write a poem or something to go with it that explains the nature of the composition.
ReplyDeleteBeing a strings major, one project that i could do is make a song that depicts the different moods in the novel. I could also make a diorama that depicts a scene that stands out the most to me in the novel.
ReplyDeleteMake a drawing depicting an important scene from the novel. Or make a diorama showing a significant scene from the book.
ReplyDeleteI could write a poem relating to a theme or two in the novel and either a documentary (if I have the time) or a newspaper with a few articles about events that happened either in the novel or in the time period relating to the novel
