AR-Due Sept. 24

Do the following for your AR requirements: Each student must create a large "portrait" of one of the characters from the book just read.

A portrait doesn't have to be a picture, it could be a collage of things important to the character, or it could include you dressing like your character. Be creative.

The portrait should include a one page written piece that tells about the character. The written piece might include information about events, traits, or conflicts in the book that involve that character.

You must also include at least 5 quotes that show significant things about your character. See me if you need poster board. Be creative, have fun!!!!.

Creativity assignment

Write a three-sentence paragraph using only the first half of the alphabet, letters A-L. (You may not use t, m, s, or any other letter that appears past L. This is where the challenge comes in.)

Be prepared to share.
