I chose this design because it’s simple. The jar is what the BFG uses everyday to hold the dreams he catches. He then gives the happy dreams to the kids and adults so they will be happy in the morning.
After completing our novels my students were challenged to redesign their book covers, but in a minimalist way. This assignment is based on the DS106 assignment (specific assignment link) from University of Mary Washington. My students exceeded my expectations with their final products. My students each have a Chromebook assigned to them. The students built their final products in Google Draw. A couple of students used single pieces of clipart on their new covers. After they designed their covers they had to defend their design decisions on their blogs. Below are some of the covers that have been turned in.
