We revisited character traits and combined it with a lesson on inferring this past week. Our class novel, Tuck Everlasting , is filled with vivid descriptions of the various characters that lend themselves to deep inferences. So I asked the students to think about a character that they connected with, and list 10 character traits that could be used to describe the character. (They used this chart that we had previously glued into our journals from Read, Write, Think) Once they had the list of character traits, the students had to list text evidence from the novel that supported their character trait inference, AND their own schema that led them to the inference. After the list was complete, the students did two things. First, they wrote a paragraph describing the character from the story using the character traits and the inferences. I had them use this form (which is from my Character Traits in 5 Days pack, but you can download for free here) to help them really keep organized. They also had to work to reference the text, direct quote, and list the schema to create a cohesive paragraph that adequately described the character. Then, each student was given a little man cut out. On it, they had to write the character trait in big letters. Under that, the direct quote and the background knowledge schema was written. This formed a visual representation of the paragraph.....that the kids really enjoyed making! The final product was pretty neat looking, and made a nice, standards-based bulletin board! How have you taught/reviewed character traits and inferring?

The 5th grader's have an annual Road To Revolution Presentation that the put on at our school. The 5th graders dress up in costumes and put on various presentations, power points, skits about the American Revolution. So in Art Class we created Flag collages to decorate the commons for their presentations. We brainstormed words for "What it means to be an American". Students cut words out of magazines and then added handwritten words into their space. We discussed Variety and how variety makes a piece of art more interesting. So students used different fonts, sizes and different directions to add/write their words. The 2nd day students add the transparent paint (modge podge mixed with tempera paint) to create the American Flag.
