7^th Witch of Blackbird Pond by Elizabeth George Spear

Artistic Creation

Choose one of the following:

1. Diorama
2. Poster
3. Mobile

Accurately and creatively represent ALL of the following elements:

1. Title and author (and your name)
2. Setting
3. Plot summary (may be written with a creative expression of an important moment in the story)
4. Three characters
5. Theme- The insight (or lesson) about human life that is revealed in the literary work.  Themes are rarely stated directly in literature.  Most often, the reader has to infer the theme of a work after considerable thought.  Theme is different from subject.  A story’s subject might be stated as “growing up”, “love”, “heroism” or “fear”.  The theme is the statement the writer wants to make about the subject:  “For most young people, growing up is a process that involves the pain of achieving self-knowledge.”  Theme must be stated in at least one sentence. (From the handbook for literary terms-Holt, Rinehart and Winston).

The project should reflect time and effort.  It should be neat, clean, creative and free of spelling or grammatical errors.
