5th Grade Book Covers

As their final project of the year, our McKay 5th grade artists designed and created book covers for the books Walk Two Moons by Sharon Creech, and Number the Stars by Lois Lowry, each of which they recently read as a class. We discussed the concepts of theme, mood, characters, and setting in literature, and students developed examples from the texts that they could incorporate into their book covers. This project brought ELA themes and content into the art classroom and allowed students to bring their literary experience to life. Thank you for viewing, and please enjoy!
