Narrative Unit Choice Board
Choice 1:
A Character’s Room Activity: We
learn a lot about characters and
people by what their bedrooms look
like. What they put on their walls,
how they decorate, and what they
have in their closets shows us their
personality and tells about their life.
Select a character you know well
and create their bedroom to tell us
about their character traits. Draw the
room and write about it. Include an
explanation of why you designed the
room and included the objects that
you drew.
Directions: The drawing must be
detailed enough that the person
viewing it will be able to understand
a lot about this character before
reading the explanation you write.
