Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing

The 4th grade class had their official premiere of their movie "Tales of a Fourth Grade Nothing." Students read the book as their summer reading novel. They began the project by writing a summary of each chapter. Then, they turned the summaries into scripts to prepare for the movie filming. Students completed the movie independently by acting as the directors, actors/actresses, prop managers, and videographers.
