Today we're going to play a bit of a "Who's Who" game to help sharpen our skills for writing character sketches. Each student is going to select one well-known figure and write a detailed sketch of that character. The papers will be shuffled, and the other students will have to guess which character was being described. The more effective the description, the easier it will be to determine the subject of the writing. Characters can be anyone from historical figures to cartoon characters, as long as they are easily recognizable figures. (For example: Charlie Sheen, The Cat in the Hat, Spongebob, Judge Judy... anyone with clear defining characteristics.)
