Character Sketch
Write a 350 word character sketch for your assigned character from Friday Night Lights. You have a lot of creativity in how you execute the sketch, provided you focus on the elements suggested in the handout.
Remember, the goal is to capture the essence of the character for the reader.
Some possible writing strategies the class brainstormed were:
- using narrative, either a mini-story or flashback
- using outside observation, reporter or teammate
- using dialogue, how what is said reveals character
- using point of view, first or third person
