3.03 B Reader's Journal -- Required by all:

As you read your book, keep a journal or log of your reading and thoughts. Your journal will consist of a minimum of 5 entries, which are evenly spaced throughout the book from the beginning to the end.

One particular concept you should explore prior to reading and completing your Reader's Journal is characterization. Characterization is the method used by an author to present a character to the reader. Five layers work together in various combinations to give the reader a mental picture of the character: (1) character's appearance, (2) character's actions, (3) character's thoughts, (4) character's speech, and (5) getting the reactions of others. The author carefully selects which layers of information to include, depending on how well the author wants the reader to "know" the character. As you will see, some layers are more informative than others.

Experiment with the five layers of characterization game.
