SECTION 1: CREATING CHARACTERS
SKILL 1: INTRODUCING A CHARACTER
As young authors practice describing characters to create a specific first
impression for the reader, they will become more observant about the people
around them.
SKILL 2: POSITIVE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
Student authors will learn about and practice creating an appealing
character through the purposeful selection of descriptive detail. In the
process, they will gain a better understanding of their own reasons for
reacting positively to other people.
SKILL 3: NEGATIVE CHARACTER DESCRIPTIONS
Student authors will learn about and practice selecting character details
that will make an immediate negative impression on the reader. In the
process, they may come to realize the importance of first impressions in
real life.
SKILL 4: CREATING GOOD GUYS AND BAD GUYS Using Personality Traits
Student authors practice ways to make the hero(ine) a more sympathetic
(likable) character than the villain(ess) of a story, in the process
gaining a deeper understanding of human behavior.
SKILL 5: WRITING FROM A POINT OF VIEW
As students practice adopting a character's point of view, they will come
to understand that there are different sides to every story, in real life
as well as in fiction.

SKILL 1: CHARACTERS HAVE EMOTIONS
As students practice choosing verb synonyms, letting a character's actions
reveal his or her emotional state, they will gain a deeper appreciation of
word connotations and an awareness of the word choices they make in
everyday life.
Reproducibles/Media: CCR 3--CHARACTERS HAVE EMOTIONS Chart
SKILL 2: AVOIDING STEREOTYPES

and feelings.
