This concept falls under the standard that asks students to "analyze particular elements of a story," the particular element of the story being characterization. We started with the difference between direct and indirect characterization. The first slide on the PowerPoint has the essential questions for both traits and motives and they are labeled as such. For today, we had students create one page for traits and one page for motives. Like always, we have students create separate pages in their composition notebooks for different notes. Thus, we're relying on lecture quite a bit of the time. The textbook does not actually contain any real descriptions of common literary terms such as direct and indirect characterization. I knew that the textbook the district adopted about ten years ago was lacking in its literary terms definitions.
