Literacy

1.  Continue to do your home reading log responses. They are due Monday.

2.  Your graphic organizers for your home reading are due today.

Now, onto today's assignment:

Have you ever had a Bento Box before?  What do you notice about the food?

You have likely noticed that food is in compartments, separated from one another.  Each compartment might be a different category of food or separated by sweet or salty, meat or vegetable.

You are going to be creating your very own BOOK BENTO BOX image for the book that you've been reading during your remote learning. Each item chosen around the book has some significance to the story and main character.

We created a Book Bento Box for the book, Out of My Mind, below.

Task #1 - Can you see the significance behind each of the objects we chose?

We will discuss the possibilities further during today's Google Meet. Be prepared to have some ideas to share with the group.

To learn more about Book Bentos, you can find some examples HERE and see some examples below:

Task #2 

Over the weekend, think about the items that you could include in your Book Bento box image. You should have no more than 8 items for your initial brainstorm. Start collecting them. These items should make sense and be an important part of your story's theme, represent your main character or actually appear in your story.  Be prepared with your list or actual items for Monday.
