Character Assertion Graphic Organizer


William is a mean person. I know he's mean because  he always bullies Margot. That's mean because Margot  is a very shy and quiet person. Also, bullying is a harsh form of violence. I know he's mean because he also locks Margot in the closet when the sun comes out. That's mean  because he knows that Margot loves the sun, and hates the rain, so he intentionally locked her in there to prevent her from being happy.


Margot is a reserved person. I know she's reserved because she lets people push her around. That's reserved because she doesn't stand up for herself. I know she's reserved because people mock her, and she just soaks it all up. That's reserved because she is keeping all her emotions bottled up, and she's letting people constantly tease her.

The meanest thing I've ever done Thursday 10/27/11

I honestly can't remember the meanest thing I've ever done, but I do remember something that I did that was pretty mean. I'm sure that this wasn't the worst I did, but it still did some damage. I stole my brother's IPhone headphones, and put it in a file cabinet at my dad's office. I was going to give them back to him before we left, but I eventually forgot.A day later, I remembered and my brother got super mad at me. I felt happy but guilty at the same time. I don't regret it now, because he still does mean things to me, so it's my mild form of revenge. Just saying, he better watch out...

Wednesday To Have something once, or not have it at all 10/26/11

I think that I would prefer to not have that ting at all.If you had something great for one day or less, after that day you would want that thing badly.But if you didn't have that thing at all, you wouldn't miss it, and you wouldn't compare other good things to it. On the other hand, if you had that one great thing for how ever much period of time, you would take away that experience with you, and have a lasing memory from it.All in all, you would definitely have an easier life without wanting that good thing again.But if I were to be able to have one good thing for a day, it would probably be to have extremely good, (I'm talking world renowned) food. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, for that one day. If only, if only...

Raining All the Time Tuesday 10/25/11

If it never stopped raining, I would try to come up with a way for people to have waterproof skin. This would make it easy for people to get around, without the hassle of carrying an umbrella, or wearing raincoats. When the rain would hit your skin, it would slide down and your skin would be left dry. As for taking showers, you would be able to switch off a button which allows your skin to become water absorbent again. But if my invention failed, I would probably be really depressed, and would have to cope with the rain. And just from an assumption, I hope it's not acid rain because we would obviously all die. That wouldn't be much fun.

Waiting Monday 10/24/11

I'm waiting to get the new Kindle. I've wanted it for over a year now, and hope that i will soon get it for Christmas. I think that the Kindle fits my lifestyle. I love to read, so it would be easier for me to just get books instantly , rather than having to travel to the bookstore, or library. Also the Kindle has a new feature where you can rent ebooks on you r Kindle. You don't have to worry about fines or anything else. My parents said that if they get it for me for Christmas, then i would have to stop talking about it. It took half of the year to convince them to get me one. But until Christmas, sooner or later, I'm still waiting.

Tuesday Protagonist of a Story 10/18/11

If I were to be in a movie it would be an action packed film. I would definitely change a lot about myself. For example, I would be flexible so I could get in and out of places fast and easy. I wouldn't be afraid of anything except losing the people I love. I would also have the ability to come up with brilliantly plotted plans in the split of a second. And I would acquire a fox as a pet. Things that would stay the same would be my personality, style, and sometimes clumsiness. I also would keep my family and friends the same.
