Realistic Fiction

In preparation for our realistic fiction writing unit, we have been identifying character traits in the stories and texts we are reading. Please start brainstorming a fictional character you might want to write a story about. What are his or her physical traits (looks) and personality traits (how he/she acts)? Think of a problem your character might face in your fiction story and share with us!

  3. I'm not sure but I might write about a cat named Jake as my character. He is young and he has orange and white stripes and he's skinny at first. He's very shy and nervous but also loves to play. His problem is that his mom dies and he and his sister are all alone and he and his sister try to find a family to adopt them.

    -She likes to play 3rd base in softball
    -She likes to act
    -She likes to read
    -She is adventurous
    -She sometimes disobeys to have fun or go on an adventure
    -When she isn't with an adult, she's convincing her friends to go with her on an adventure where she isn't supposed to go
    Her physical traits are
    -She has curly red hair always tied up into a ponytail or pigtails
    -She never wears a dress
    -And she always has at least the tiniest bit of a grin on her face
    Sincerely,
    Abby

  5. I think I am going to write about a girl who got a scholarship to play softball but when she takes the scholarship she regrets it. In high school her team says she is the best pitcher but when she plays college softball she walks almost every girl out but the team manages to win to stay undefeated all season long but in the champion ship something totally changes!! What do you think happened in the championship put your thinkings below!!
