I love this lesson! I’ve used it in my class a few times, and I’m so happy I finally got my act together to put it in a presentable format. Seriously! Look at how I’ve used it for the last two years:
That’s right, I used this random scrap of paper and a few pictures saved on my computer for two whole years.
Now, that might work for me, but I couldn’t pass it on that way! It’s been put into a pdf file complete with detailed lesson plan (no scribbles for you!) and pictures with titles and attractive borders.
This package includes:
– the lesson plan
– character examples (from movies and books students know)
– a group activity
– individual task with student planning sheet

With this lesson, you’ll guide your students through the process of planning a character BEFORE they write. They will think critically about the details of their main character’s outfit: what are they wearing, why are they wearing it and what does it look like. The primary focus is on the character’s t-shirt.
Kids love to invent reasons for stains, rips and tears. They are so creative and the results are always great.
