Design Your Own Character
Students developed their own characters in their LA classes with their homeroom teachers. In ADST we did different activities to show how the clothes we wear tell a story and is a part of our characters. At the end of their character development unit the students came to class dressed up and interacted with their classmates acting like their characters. We had wizards, space rangers, spies, turtles, invisible race car drivers, and jungle creatures all playing, talking and working together in one Zoom room!
