Ashlan's Book Project

Tuesday, November 17, 2009

Ashlan read the book "Clementine" and decided that was going to be the book that she would do a project on. She wanted to do a clay sculpture to describe what the book was about. I picked up some modeling clay at Walmart, but I've decided I will never use that stuff again. It's greasy and it doesn't set. We tried to stand the girls up, but the clay was to dense. I think we'll stick to the Crayola stuff next time. :)

She did a great job though and made sure to get in all the details from the book. It seemed like a cute book about a girl who made a hat for her friend. Here is Ashlan's typed out paper on it:


Clementine is a good and nice girl, but a lot of the time she can get into trouble. This book is not all about trouble though, but most of it is. She cuts Margaret’s hair because Margaret told her to then Clementine cuts her own hair. They both get in trouble by their parents and principal. Clementine made a hat to give to Margaret after they cut their hair. On the hat were the things Margaret liked. Some of them were: Pepperoni because it was the only kind of pizza Clementine sees Margaret eat, red doll shoes because Margret makes Clementine put them on the Barbie, a blue jay feather because Margaret’s favorite color is blue, Polka Dottie’s Flea Collar, a lace to Clementine’s party socks, M&M’s because Margaret breathed on Clementine’s, a charm bracelet because Margret always makes “I-wish eyes” at it, pink sparkle nail polish because Margaret tried to borrow it but Clementine caught her, a dead bumble bee I don’t know why, and the rest of the red hair Clementine cut off. Clementine is having a horrible week!
