After hearing the detailed explanation of the project, students are ready to get to work creating their creative writing books:

Necessary Supplies -

a large stack of paper - students are able to take as many sheets of paper that they think they will use for the project (a ream should be sufficient to last throughout the day)

staplers - enough for the class to pass around to each student

colored pencils - used for illustrations, make sure to have a pencil sharpener . . . students will always ask for one!

scissors - in case students wanted to create unique shapes for their book

Biology textbook, student-drawn diagrams, and lecture notes to use as a reference

Rough Draft - Students are encouraged to write a rough draft of their children's story which should outline the detailed processes of either photosynthesis or cellular respiration. This was not a mandatory step in today's lesson, but next year it will be implemented the extra step to increase the effort and quality level of the project. The rough draft provides the opportunity to have students record their ideas and then go back and revise the statements by checking for scientific accuracy, flow of content, and creativity in presentation. The rough draft was not made mandatory, please see the Video Reflection Section for insight on this matter.

Illustrations - Once students complete their narrations of the multi-step processes, they are allowed to begin creating the illustrations for their books. Some students expressed hesitation creating their own illustrations by hand, so students were given the option of printing images from the computer at home and bringing them into class to use as illustrations.

Sample of Student Work #1: This student's creation literally blew me out of the water. He used my daughters as the audience and wrote the story for them, ages 3 and 6. This creative writing piece captures the essence of the assignment better than I could ever explain in words. Kuddos for this student for allowing his creative side bring his scientific understanding to new heights!!!

Sample of Student Work #2: This image demonstrates the amazing quality work by the Biology students when they are given the green light to intertwine their creativity with their comprehension of the curriculum. This assignment was hugely successful and supported student learning of a complicated scientific concept!

The Creative Process - Students were provided a short collaboration period, no more than 5 minutes, to brainstorm ideas with their neighbors to discuss strategies to incorporate creative techniques into their writings. Students will then use the rest of the section of this lesson to work independently to sketch the outline of their book.
