Hello again Book Week Rappers,
I have really enjoyed reading all your Introductions this week – and I have a great database with everyone’s names and location. We have rappers in 4 states so far, and perhaps this week we may spread to other states or territories. That would be terrific! How are your rap maps going?
This week we begin our fun with Rap Point One. I’m sure you’re ready, so here it is:
These sort-listed books have great characters. Choose a character that appeals to your group, and after gathering all the information you can on Rap Sheet 1, create a poem about this character.
Just for fun, you can turn this rap point into a challenge, by not including the character’s name in your poem. You can then invite other rappers to guess your ‘mystery character’! (Be sure to put “Can you guess?” in the subject line.)
Send your poem and your guesses to the rap address:
bkweek03_rap@list.schools.nsw.edu.au
If you think you have guessed a group’s mystery character, send a message to the rap address (above) with the school’s name in the subject line e.g.”Wollondilly, are we right?”
We are sure to have some wonderful creative ideas arriving in our mail boxes very soon. So let’s rap!
Happy writing and rapping!
Mrs Chapman
