Our Favorite Characters

We had a wonderful first day in our Character Unit of study.  During our mini-lesson each student shared out their favorite character (see the class anchor chart below).  We discussed how characters can be animals and/or people.  In addition, we talked about characters can be from movies, TV shows, books, etc. After the mini-lesson students worked with Ms. Kelley and brainstormed character traits from A-Z.  Students talked with Ms. Kelley about what different character traits meant and students even acted out certain character traits.  Tomorrow we will begin reading in the Pinky and Rex series where we will pay close attention to Rex, Amanda and Pinky's character traits!
