Today our focus was on characters and characterization. We focused on the two types of characterization writers use [direct, which entails telling us what a character is like, and indirect characterization, which entails showing us what a character is like (which can be remembered through the acronym STEAL {Speech, Thoughts, Effect on others, Actions, and Looks}].
We also read the Margaret Walker poem "Lineage," which can be found here: https://www.poetryfoundation.org/poems-and-poets/poems/detail/53463.
Read through page 80 in To Kill a Mockingbird tonight.
