Eragon Games

SarahBeth has a wonderful teacher this year. Each month they have been assigned different book report projects and have to read all different genres of books. In February, the report was on a "fantasy book" and had to be presented in the form of a board game. In spite of a short and busy month, SB insisted on creating her own pawns for the game.

The book Eragon is about a boy who receives a dragon egg and it's the last of the dragons. You can see in the pictures SB gave each player 2 eggs, a dragon and a sword(not pictured). She formed those pawn with her own hands out of clay and painted them. She also set her own alarm to ensure the final details were implemented and the project was perfected. We were busy that morning making sure it would transport safely, so I don't have any final project pictures...but you can see her effort and creativity. Fantastic. :)

Great job on the dragons, SB. If you like fantasy books try "The Dark is Rising" series. Melaine and I are (re)reading them. I first read them when I was in 4th grade and they are even better this time.

Oooo! There's an old series "The Dragonriders of Pern" that I loved in junior high too. Besides all the Ender's Game and Myth series too...
She is so creative...and deserves an A+++++
