Literacy Skill: Character Development

Our story of the week is, The Dot. Today we analyzed the main character Vashti. We know that learning about the characters and understanding them helps us comprehend the story even better. 

We discussed how Vashti changed from the beginning of the story to the end of the story. We came up with some great answers.

We realized that Vashti thought she was a bad artist at the beginning but thought of herself as a good artist at the end. We knew that she felt determined to make art at the beginning and we noticed that her dots were tiny. At the end, she asked another student to sign his art, just like her teacher did to her at the beginning. Finally, her dots became giant at the end.
