Create a poster or Facebook page or video (or other creative response) to introduce your character. Be sure to give a thorough picture of who he\/she is, and do so in a way that presents him\/her in a smart and creative way.<\/p>\n
Be sure to select a dynamic character from any of the readings in units 1 or 2.<\/p>\n
Notice every place your character appears and consider how the author describes him\/her, what kind of relationships he\/she has, how his\/her actions move the plot forward, and what kind of struggles he\/she encounters.<\/p>\n
Gather your notes and look for the main idea that has emerged. This will become your thesis statement.<\/p>\n
Consider the best way to introduce your character to your audience based on your thesis statement.<\/p>\n
Carefully craft your presentation.<\/p>\n
Your project will be graded on the following criteria:<\/p>\n
Have you taken notes, written out a thesis statement and a plan? (And has it been turned in?)<\/p>\n
Have you chosen a character that is dynamic (i.e., does he\/s she change)? Does the story reveal adequate information about the character (i.e., is there evidence for your claims)?<\/p>\n
Do you have a clear message that you want to communicate about this character?<\/p>\n
Have you been able to communicate that message using evidence from the story?<\/p>\n
Have you demonstrated interest in the project by coming up with creative ways to communicate your message?<\/p>\n
Does the product have a good look\/feel and is it free of errors?<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t Candela Citations<\/h3>\n\t\t\t\t\t
