Bud, Not Buddy final project

Part 1: Suitcase Activity

After reading Bud, Not Buddy, we learned how important Bud's suitcase full of personal treasures was to him. These items told about who he was and where he came from. You will make a connection to the text with this part of the project. 

1. Decorate/Illustrate the folder given to you to represent a suitcase, like Bud's.

2. Choose 5 items from home that you cherish and would keep with you if you were Bud Caldwell.

3. With each item, you must include a small artifact representing the item. (ex: a photo, an illustration, a flat object to represent the item)

4. With each item, you must answer the following questions into a thoughtful paragraph using complete sentences: 

• What is the item you have chosen to include?
• Why is this item so special to you?
• How does this item represent who you are or where you came from?
• Why would you not want to be without this special treasure?

Part 2: Rules to Live By

As we read in the story, Bud likes to make up rules to live by. You will get to create your own "rules to live by."

You must write 3-5 rules. Remember to refer to the book if you need examples of how Bud created his rules.  We will put all of our "rules" together and make a class book.
