Number the Stars by Lois Lowry
The link above will take you to a PDF version of our class novel.  Use this to help you with your work at home.
NUMBER THE STARS FINAL PROJECT:  (W)RAPPING IT ALL UP:   Due Thursday April 6th

You and your team will write and perform an original rap song which accurately retells the story from Number the Stars.
When completed, you and your group will perform the song for the class.  Your song should hit all of the highlights of the story – the major plot points (rising action, climax, falling action, resolution).  You will need to work together very carefully to make sure you have enough information in your song to properly tell the tale of Annemarie and Ellen.
This assignment was given on Wed. March 22nd.  The project sheet is below.

During the Spring Break, you are responsible for continuing to brainstorm your rhyming ideas and story plots points so that, when we return to school, you are ready to work with your group to complete your assignment.  I also suggest you keep in touch with them via edmodo.  It's easy, quick, and will make for a better production.  Have fun!
