Front of Cereal Box The front of your cereal box should include a title, your name, and a design. Do not use the title of the book, instead create a name for your cereal that pertains to your book. For example, if you read How to Eat Fried Worms, you may want to call your cereal Wacky Worms. Be sure to be creative and add lots of color (there should not be a lot of white paper showing.) It’s a good idea to design and color your cereal box cover before gluing it to the box. Right Side of Cereal Box This side of your box will contain the “ingredients of the book,” the characters and the setting. You are to list all of the main characters in the book and include at least a sentence describing them and their development within the story. Also include a detailed description of the story’s setting. You may use the attached templates or create your own. If you would like to use the computer to create pieces for your cereal box, you can certainly do that!
Left Side of Box On this side of the box, you are to identify three words from your book. They could be words you don’t know the meaning of, words that are important to the development of the story, or words that trigger an emotion. The four words you choose are up to you. You are then to create a mini “glossary” on the side of your cereal box. The glossary should include the word, part of speech, definition, and a sentence you created that uses the word. Back of Cereal Box The back of your cereal box should include a detailed summary of the book. Be sure that your summary includes the main events and details of the book. Your summary should be at least 10 sentences. The back of the box should also include some sort of game (a word search, puzzle, hidden picture, etc.) that pertains to the book. Be creative! Bonus Elements (Be creative!) Prize – some cereals include a prize in the box. You may want to place a “prize” inside of your box that pertains to your book. Jingle – You may want to write a “jingle” that pertains to your cereal.
