What's the Big Idea? Ask Ms. Spizzoucco's Students


Students in Ms. Spizzoucco's sixth-grade language arts class created 3D book reports by covering cereal boxes with wrapping paper so that the boxes looked like books. Then they illustrated covers for their books and wrote summaries for the front and back covers. Along the spines and page edges, they identified main ideas, and asked thoughtful questions. Students were proud of their work and eager to share their accomplishments.
