You will be creating a visual diary choosing one of the two main characters in the novel Camel Rider.

Diary entries should be 1-3 minutes in length and 5 diary entries in total or more if they choose. Students can choose what 5 parts/chapters they want to focus on.

Students simply speak as though they are the character at various points in the novel.

Students will record video entries answering these THREE questions:

1) How did you react to others at this time and why?

2) How would you describe your surroundings?

3) How do you feel about the situation at the moment?
