Last school project of the year

Christian had to do a book report for the last big assignment of the year. He read the book Shiloh and then had to do a report on it. When he came home the middle of May and told me I thought it was going to be really simple, well I was wrong. They had to do a Cereal Box Book Report and the directions he brought home the next day was three pages long. He had to create a cereal and decorate a box using the story and then he had to do a 2 minute commercial advertising the cereal. It was really fun but doing it in two and a half weeks was very challenging. He got a great grade and loved doing it so I guess it was worth it. He named his cereal Shiloh Charms and decided for his commercial he wanted to be an Irish man selling the cereal so in the video that is why he is talking in an accent (it's not really Irish but he tried)!
He had to name the cereal and draw a picture on the front of the box, he also had to put a prize in the box. Shiloh is a dog and so the prize he did was a dog tag.

On the left side he had to list the Ingredients, which were the characters and setting. On the right side of the box he had to write the summary of the book.On the top he gave the title, author and the ratingThe back was the hardest because he had to make a game or something. He decided to do a maze but kept messing up so I think he had to redo it like 3 or 4 times before it turned out the way he wanted.

I couldn't get the video to load so I will try again later!
