  • The Westleigh School - Summer Reading Project
    The Westleigh School - Summer Reading Project CHALLENGE 1: WRITER’S CORNER! Write an alternative ending to the novel. How did the novel end? Did the story have a happy ending or were there some questions left unanswered? Write an ending that puts a totally different spin on the original! Write an interview with the author. Your chance to get into the mind of the author! Think about what questions you would like to ask the author. This could be about the ideas in the novel, the characters, the setting and what might happen next. Then think about how they may have answered them. Write a book review. Tell all! Include: a synopsis of the story; what the characters are like; what was your favourite part; what was your least favourite part and a star rating out of 5. Write a newspaper article reporting one of the events in the novel. What part of the book has really stuck in your mind? Choose an event in the novel that really sticks out to you. It could be an exciting, tragic, happy or sad event. Imagine you’re a reporter at the scene and report the event as it happens. CHALENGE 2: ARTIST’S NOOK! Create a 3D model. You can choose either to create a character from the novel or a scene to bring to life. Design a movie poster. Think about your presentation. What images, colours and fonts will you use to grab the audience’s attention to go and see this new film? Don’t forget to say which actors will be playing the roles of your favourite characters and an all-important slogan to stick in the audience’s mind! Design an alternative book cover.
