To Kill a Mockingbird Character Development Project
These instructions are what I give to my students for the culminating character growth assessment. The "Textual Evidence" worksheet can be purchased separately. The "Evolution of Dill" picture is an actual poster I made as an example of the project. I display this in the classroom while the students work on theirs because the instructions are dense. Overall, students will need about 4 hours of class time for this group project, with only the writing component assigned as homework.
