WRITING: FANTASY
A famous author once said that as a writer, you should know your main character so well that at any given time, you’d know how much change he/she has in their pocket. We may not know the answer to that question, but today we are going to dig deeper into our main characters and get to know them better. Much better!
- Watch the introductory video
- Build your main character using looseparts **I will show you examples at our Zoom if you want to wait.**
- Record your new thinking about your character in your notebook
