Book of Choice One Pager Assignment
A one-pager is a way of responding to a piece of writing on a single sheet of paper. It represents your own written and graphic interpretation of what you have read. It may be very literal or it may be a symbolic representation of the piece. It helps you as a reader to visualize what you are reading.
Directions:
• Must be on standard sized, unlined paper (whether done by hand or computer)
• Must fill the entire page
• Writing must be in ink or typed – no pencil
• Must include the title and the author of the book
• Must use color unless the book demands black and white
The following required elements may be arranged on the page in any way you choose:
• Must have three or more excerpts from the book (passages or quotes you think are important)
• Must have a graphic representation: drawing, picture, or graphic that ties to the book you read and the quotes you chose
• Must include a personal response to what you read that includes:
▪ Commentary (What did you think of it?)
▪ Interpretation (What larger significance/ theme do you think it's trying to convey?)
▪ Evaluation (How successful do you think it is in effectively expressing its meaning? Do you think it was engaging and well-written?)
