This teaching resource was created by me to provide an opportunity to write about book characters. Understanding characters in the story will improve reading comprehension. Talking about characters in books teaches citizenship and life lessons that are so valuable to literacy instruction.
There are 7 pages included here to write about character traits, and their words and actions in the story.
These pages can be used with ANY book or character.
Great way to teach descriptive writing and adjectives.
Thank you for previewing this teaching resource about writing.
This teaching resource provides opportunities to teach math and literacy concepts at calendar time.
