Task one: Delightful Displays
Display 1:
This display shows how buccaneers were traveling and
communicating with people around the world. The teacher
chose the theme from Port Side Pirates story, and grade three
students design it. This display considered as a post-reading
activity that students made buccaneers passport of themselves
included a descriptive message. It developed students' reading,
writing, and listening skills. Also, there was a speaker book that
recorded students' voices while reading the story to allow others
listen to the story.

How was the work selected for the display?
It was selected based on the work and whether it had met the objective.
How interactive is the display?
Originally there is some working recordings from the book that people could press and listen.
Display 2:
This display is for grade two students, it is a great example of
group work because each four group did a part of the story. It is a
visual display where people can see and read students' writings.
Moreover, the children made puppets of the story characters with
a 3D bridge to summarize the story events. I liked that each
group create a book cover page for the four different events .

read a funny story that a man came alive after years, so the
students made a wanted paper with drawing the man. The
displays helped students to summarize and write the story main

the display to belong this work to them. On the other hand, it is
not interactive because it is only written descriptions.

Other comments
Nest time I would make it more interactive by including some questions about the book and display. Also some hieroglyphic work could be included.
Display 4
This creative display done by grade five students. They chose the
story title, theme, and the design by themselves. The magic box
book is a poetry book, so the children created a box with their
own poems. Which is an excellent stimulus for creative writing
and poetry. Moreover, this display shows classmates'
collaboration in creating a display with two different activities
from each student.
