Getting to know characters!

We have been spending time studying characters traits and why characters act the way they do.  

In Because of Winn Dixie, we have noticed a pattern that Opal is big hearted. First, she saved Winn Dixie from going to the pound.  She then convinces her dad to give Winn-Dixie a home and gives him a bath.  She treats Winn Dixie like a friend.  

What is your realistic fiction character like? What evidence do you have to support your theory?

Peru!

We have been learning new information on the amazing country of Peru! Many of us did not have very much background knowledge on this country including Ms. Papadakes!

Please share at least two pieces of new learning that you know about Peru and a few wonders or bits of background knowledge.
