I really enjoyed reading everyone's interpretations of their characters. Thanks for putting so much effort into this project.
I will also be hanging the "hard copy" projects this week, so we can all enjoy their creativity in our classroom.
Great work!

Character Analysis with Fakebook!

Happy new year! We welcomed 2013 with a BANG! Not only did we write thank-you notes and make grammar review foldables, we also started talking about our Character Analysis project: Facebook pages for characters in our independent reading books. (see assignment here).

What is Fakebook? It is an online educational tool to create a fake Facebook page for a historical figure or fictional character. Click here to get to Fakebook. From here, you can start your own Fakebook page by clicking "Click Here To Enter Name." Be sure to save your work and create a password. When your Fakebook page is complete, you will turn in the url address for your page as well as your password to prove it was YOU who created it!

Check out the Fakebook page I created for the character Tiger Lily, from the book of the same name.


You can also create a hard copy of a Facebook page using the template I handed out in class. It is page 1-2 of the linked pdf.

The Fakebook assignment will be due on January 17th, so go forth and make it happen! Happy Fakebooking!
