Project Ideas for The Cay

PowerPoint Presentation  Organize a PowerPoint presentation that summarizes The Cay. Include pictures, major events, climax, conflict, setting, complications, and resolution.

Video  Organize a talk show with several of your classmates. You will need a host, guests, and an audience. The guests should be characters from The Cay. The host should question them about events from the book. Plan carefully, rehearse, and present your show to the class.

Personal Journal  Pretend you are in Phillip’s shoes. Write 10 journal entries that he might have made describing his experiences. This will be written in first person.

Newspaper  Create a camp newsletter for The Cay. A newsletter should have a variety of sections, explore viewpoints of the different characters, and inform its readers about events and everyday life on the island.

Children’s Book  Write a young children’s version of the events in The Cay. Create an eight to 10 page children’s book featuring simplified text and lots of creative artwork.

Musical Magic  Write a ballad about Phillip’s experiences throughout the book The Cay. A ballad is a poem that tells a story and is often set to music. Perform your ballad for the class with or without musical accompaniment.
