Extra Credit Project Possibilities for English III and To Kill a Mockingbird
Due Date:  Friday, December 14th

Extra Credit Idea:
Description of what you might do:
Scrapbook
Put together a scrapbook from either Jem and/or Scout's point of view.  Include pictures, momentos, etc. from their years as we see them in the book.
Soundtrack
Compile a soundtrack of music to go with the book.  You would probably want to have a theme song for each of the characters, a song for the major events in the story, etc.  Write up a short summary of what the song is, who sings it, and why you chose it. (Make sure the lyrics stay clean)  (There is a song out there specifically about Boo Radley!)
Playbill
Put together a program or playbill if this book were going to be made into a play (or movie).  Include a cast of characters and put modern-day actors in the key roles.  Playbills also have summaries of the action, background information, advertising, etc.
Artwork
Pick a scene, character, setting, or event from the book and create a piece of artwork around it.  You may use whatever medium you want to work with.
Bulletin Board
Create and put up a bulletin board on one of the three boards in/outside room 205. 
Crossword/Puzzle
Using one of the online puzzle-makers, make a crossword or other type of puzzle over the characters, events, etc., from the book.  Make a blank copy and an answer key. 
Journal Writing
Since the book is from Scout's point of view, we don't always know what the other characters are thinking or feeling.  Write a journal entry from either Jem, Atticus, Boo, Calpurnia, etc., centered around one of the major events of the novel
Human Graph
Create a list of statements centered around the themes and conflicts of the novel.  Make them ones your classmates could agree/disagree with and then do a human graph on.  As a prereading exercise for the book, keep it general so everyone gives their honest opinions.  Assume they haven't read the book yet.
