Read through the story, "Two Kinds." As you read, record characterization notes on your two-column characterization chart. ONLY one person--Jordy Carpio--recorded notes from pages 90-95. Yeah, Jordy!! Today, we used his examples to demonstrate how to support inferences with very specific details from the text. If your name is not Jordy, you are recording characterization notes for the entire story (pp89-99).
Jordy, you should go back and add to your notes. ALL STUDENTS must have multiple inferences for the major characters (Jing-mei and her mother) and at least one entry for ALL of the minor characters. Minor characters help to inform us about major characters! Don't overlook them.
Reminders
These notes should be recorded AS you read. Complete a short chunk of reading, stop, and think about the characters presented in this selection.
Record your inference--your informed judgement in the column that reads, WHAT DO I KNOW ABOUT THE CHARACTER. best
In the column that reads, HOW DO I KNOW, record the specific detail or details in the text that helped you to formulate that inference. Do not use general language. Use very exact examples from the story.
Think like a lawyer. If you want to win your case, you must provide the very best evidence.
