Character Business Card Select three characters from your book. Create a business card for each character (on an unlined index card), advertising that character’s skills, talents, and qualities. 1. One of your business cards should be on the main character. The other two should be secondary or minor characters. 2. Include identifying information on your business card: where the character is located (city, state, etc.), contact information (phone number, email address, or address,) his or her talents, accomplishments, job (if that applies,) words or phrases that describe the character, and other interesting information. If needed, you may make up the contact information. Make sure all your other information is from the book. 3. Design a creative logo for each character's business card. Your designs should be related to the characters or to the book. 4. For ideas on what business cards look like, have a parent help you search online for examples. You can also often find business cards available at restaurants, doctor’s offices, and stores. Your business cards should be interesting and creative, but they should also be easy to read. 5. Write a two to three paragraph summary of your book. Use your “Writing Requirements for 5th Grade” sheet to help you proofread your work. 6. If your book is an AR book, you may take an AR test to earn up to three points extra credit. The AR test must be completed no later than three days after the book report is due.
