For your Senior Project, read and/ or listen to The Children of Willesden Lane: Beyond the Kindertransport: A Memoir of Music, Love, and Survival by Mona Golabek and Lee Cohen. Based on your interpretation, create your own Willesden Lane Picture Book.

• Ask two of the questions from the Willesden Lane Read schedule
• How is a refugee like an immigrant? What is the main difference between the meanings of the two words? 
• In class: While listening, draw your perspective of the chapter or a scene.
• Homework: Complete creative drawing and write about the drawing for viewers to understand or get a glimpse of what the picture is stating.  

Bring all drawings and writings back to class for grade each week.  These drawings will be used to create a book to use for the end of the semester. The grade will be based on your writing from the READ about your drawing and the drawings. Each will give an oral presentation by showcasing their completed books.
