Story Plate

Students create a story plate on a book that they read. First  they cut out a circle on colored paper.  Next, they fold the paper in half and then fold it in half again. Then they cut a line on both folds. Next,  staple the paper to a paper plate and fold up each section up. On each section of the colored paper have the students write what you want them to draw or write on their plate. I had students draw or write; the characters, setting, conflict and resolution.  They can write the title and author's message around the edge of the plate.
