Literature: Write the rough draft of your character analysis.
                    Use your notes and the informations from class.
                    It should be 350-400 words.
                    Please follow the five paragraph essay format.
                    First paragraph- introduce your character and his/her importance in the book (thesis)
                    Second paragraph- first character quality with examples from the book
                    Third paragraph- second quality with specific examples

I will be watching for a clear thesis, organized thoughts, good transitions between paragraphs and a strong conclusion.
This may be typed or hand written.
