Turn Your Favorite Book into a Movie!

Hello friends, hope you are doing well! This week, I’m back to share a new task I did for our course.
Our assignment was to either create a magazine cover or turn your favorite book into a movie/create a movie poster. And of course, being the book lover that I am, I chose the second option.😊

(some movie poster examples. taken from here)

For the book, I chose the first book in one of my favorite series: THE RAVEN BOYS (THE RAVEN CYCLE #1)

I found this task very fun, but I’m not sure if I’ll be giving this assignment to my students in the future. On one hand, I think creating a poster/cover on its own is not helping our students’ language skills. On the other hand, if students are asked to present their covers with their friends and talk about the plot of the book, their choice of casting, etc. it can be helpful for their speaking and presentation skills, which is great! In this case, I’d happily give this task to my students.

As always, here are the tools that I used:
Canva (for creating the poster)
Pinterest (for finding images)
