Character Study: TRAITS
WHOLE GROUP LESSON IDEA:
Brainstorm a list of character traits together using different characters from familiar books. Leave room to add more (I didn't do this) because I assure you, more will pop up! SMALL GROUP LESSON IDEA:
Draw / laminate pictures of favorite characters. Let small groups look for the books for EVIDENCE of certain character traits, the have them write the trait on the poster. This leads to a great discussion, where students challenge each other for the evidence. |
GALLERY LESSON IDEA:
Have students make a character poster for themselves. After, let students walk around and add (positive) CHARACTER TRAITS to each classmates' poster.
