Sumter County Middle English language arts teacher, Marilyn A. Williams’  students were engaged in learning how to identify lines of dialogue and what those lines reveal about the character. After reading and annotating the prologue of The Illustrated Man by Ray Bradbury for the main character’s actions, descriptions, and dialogue, students then used their critical thinking skills to reveal additional information about the main character. Students completed the assignment by working cooperatively in small groups. Shown from left are Madison Smith, Teigan Pepito, and Tykira Bailey.
