All students read in their independent books for 10 minutes.
7th grade
Students completed two parts of prewriting for creating their characters and the majority of class time was devoted to writing time for these activities. Students were also given a long list of possible personality traits so that they could more accurately describe their characters.

8th grade
I reviewed three different writing activities with eighth graders in regards to effective character creation. Students spent most of class flushing out the major and minor details of their characters. Students worked not only on demographic information but on other character's opinions of the protagonist, and a variety of external life factors of their protagonist.
