This resource focuses on an interactive character analysis activity for students reading 'Speak' by Laurie Halse Anderson. The objective is for students to delve deeply into the motivations and traits of a selected character by creating a digital persona that reflects their personality and experiences in the novel. Students will explore elements such as search history, a personalized playlist, phone wallpaper, and text interactions, all linked to textual evidence from the book. Additionally, students will engage in reflective writing by assuming the role of an advice columnist, providing empathetic guidance to the main character, Melinda Sordino, to address her struggles following trauma. The activity emphasizes critical thinking, textual analysis, and creativity while encouraging a compassionate understanding of the character's journey.
