Create a Character

You need to complete your Power Point Presentation about a character you create. Remember, your presentation must include the following:

1. Name of Character:

2. Describe the character’s physical appearance.

(Describe hair, eyes, skin, clothes, unusual features, and anything else that makes the character unique.)

3. Describe the character’s personality.

(Does she have a sense of humor? Is she serious? Is she kind? Does she have strong feelings about anything?)

4. Describe the way the character speaks.

(Does he speak in an unusual way? Does he speak at a fast or slow pace? Does he listen to others?)

5. List the different roles the character plays in the lives of the people around him.

(Is the character a son, daughter, husband, wife, best friend, policeman, teacher, etc.?)

When you are done with your character, go to the next link and follow the steps to create your story. Now it is your opportunity to put your character in action!

You are going to play a game in which you need to write a story and draw your characters. Then your story will be published. It may be about "adventure", "fantasy", or "science fiction". Try doing it in class. You will have to finish it at home and print it.

Reading Time!

Just wanted to remind you that it is very important that you  read at least 10 minutes in a loud voice, every day. For those who doesn't have books to read in English at home, here is a link to a nice story. Read it aloud please! In the same site, you will be able to find other stories. I hope you like it.
