Character Cube Example: Ponyboy


This is an example of a final draft.  It does need a little more editing and perhaps a little more added information.
How Do We Learn About a Character in a Book or Story?
-- what the character says or thinks, and how he or she says it
-- what the character does
--what other characters say or think about this character or what the narrator tells us

When creating your final draft, you may use pictures and words, or just words, but make your cube colorful and interesting.

Complete the cube for your book in ink and color on the cardstock-weight paper template. Turn into the wire basket FLAT.
c  Write a one-paragraph description of your assignment and what grade you should earn on it on the separate paper provided.  Staple to your final draft cube. 



By October 18, create your final cube, but do not cut it out.  Hand it in with the two sheets indicated.
