Novel Study Portfolio Choices & Rubric
ELA 8B: Unit 13 Lesson 1:
Novel Study Book Options
For this portfolio you can choose one of the following options to share your knowledge of your chosen novel study book. Most of these options are creative, but don’t forget, the rubric is how you are being scored on this project. Whichever portfolio option you pick needs to address ALL parts of the rubric in some way because that is how you are being graded. If you can't include them in the creative part of your project, then turn in another paper including the things you haven't addressed in the creative part of your portfolio.
For example: You don’t see dialogue and conflict analysis on movie posters, but you are being graded on those things, so turn in another document with your movie poster that includes those things and anything else that wouldn’t be on a movie poster.
PLEASE CAREFULLY REVIEW THIS RUBRIC BEFORE YOU SUBMIT YOUR PORTFOLIO. THIS IS HOW YOU WILL BE GRADED ON THIS ASSIGNMENT!
Project options:
Book Creator- Create your own book. Example Document
Video (flipgrid or other)- This could be your own recreation of the novel or a scene from the novel. You could act yourself with friends & family, or use puppets, animation, claymation, etc. You could also set it up like an interview of the main character on a talk show or podcast. Turn in the script you create, as well as any explanations of how the different elements on the rubric below are met in your movie/trailer/interview.
Social Media Profile(s)- Create a “social media” page for the main character of your novel. (Do not create an actual page on social media- create something to look like a social media page.) It needs to be in first person POV from the character’s perspective. Include a “wall” or message board with comments from other characters. Think of other online features that could be included like blogs or journal entries that will enhance your page. Be creative! Social Media Example
Google Slides/PPT/prezi presentation- Powerpoint Example
Written paper - Write a 5 paragraph literary analysis of your chosen novel. Your essay must include a thesis statement, textual evidence, and references to all required components listed on the rubric.
Soundtrack- create a soundtrack for your novel with at least 10 songs. You need to be able to explain why you chose each song & what part of the novel or character it represents. Make sure you mention the title & artist of the song & include either a written paper describing the reasons behind each song or an oral presentation where you explain it (you could even play clips of the songs on your video as you explain).
Scratch - example- Create a scene from your book, using scratch. Make sure that the scene chosen has the correct setting, characters, and the correct dialogue. It should be at least 1 minute long.
Movie poster/infographic - Possibly use Canva- Create a movie poster of your novel, include the name(s) of the main characters, two quotes from the novel, and one quote out of the two quotes must include a literary technique, such as a simile, metaphor, analogy, etc. You must also include an image that represents the novel. For example, it could be an image of a novel cover. Make sure you find a way to meet all rubric elements.
Yearbook entry- Yearbook Example--Create superlatives of at least one main character from your book, including quotes and phrases that your character says in the novel. You can include favorite character moments (scenes), and include literary techniques used in the novel such as: similes, analogies, hyperboles, etc.
Collage - Create a collage of images, quotes, or other relevant artifacts that represent the literary elements of your chosen novel. Compose at least 2 paragraphs that explains your collage and includes any remaining required elements.
Mobile- Create a mobile with 8 - 10 things hanging from it. (Mobiles are like those things that hang over baby beds- you could make them with a hanger base or something else.) The things hanging on it could be artwork, models, etc. Each item should relate to your novel (and the rubric) in some way. You need to include a description explaining each element on your mobile & why it was included (& how it meets an element on the rubric). Make sure you either include photos of your mobile that clearly show each item, or a video where you show & explain each item on your mobile.
Recommendation or ad/trailer - Compose or create a recommendation or advertisement for your chosen novel using the medium of your choice. Why should someone read your book? Why should they not read your book? Your recommendation or advertisement must include all required elements.
Create a test/quiz with an answer key - Create a test or quiz about your novel that includes at least one question for each required element. You must include a detailed answer key that explains the correct answer for each question.
