HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN TRADING CARD
On Thursday morning, we had to start thinking of our main character to create a story. In my opinion, it is a good way of creating a trading card, because you go step by step, thinking of qualities, likes and dislikes, adjectives to describe your character. These are the different steps:
- I saw Cavy for the first time in London in a friend’s house.
- She is broader than a rat, smaller than a rabbit and she has a chubby face with long whiskers.
- She is always sociable, funny and nearly always happy.
- Her most important thoughts are traveling, creating music and art, and finding food.
- Her most important feelings are happiness, well-being and excitement
- Cavy’s challenge is to visit the seven South American countries (Argentina, Peru, Colombia, Bolivia, Chile, Ecuador and Venezuela) and travel along the highlands of the Andes.
- Cavy wants to walk along the Andes, see the seven South American countries and to meet new friends during her journey.
Outcome
- Cavy succeeds in her goals. As a result, she ends up meeting new friends.
Quote
- “If you don’t start somewhere you’ll never get anywhere.”
Action
- Cavy jumped out of the cage and run to throw me her favourite colourful ball. I then had to throw the ball away. It was getting dark and before heading back home Cavy hid my house keys in her cage.
- She got along with most of the characters in the story but on the other hand she found trouble with some people.
Personal Connection- Cavy is a globetrotter and she is an interesting and happy rodent because she knows how to manage herself in the big wide world. Cavy reminds me of myself because I’m a globetrotter like Cavy too! I consider myself a happy and independent person and I know how to take care of myself anywhere I go.
