Wonderful Weasels!

Wonderful Weasels!
You are tasked with creating your own, original weasel character inspired by the work of Elys Dolan.
Description: ttp://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/61FHW8W1O3L._SX258_BO1,204,203,200_.jpg

FIRST: Think about the kind of weasel you will invent:

Granny Weasel?
Astronaut Weasel?
Scuba Weasel?
Artist Weasel?
Teacher Weasel?
Librarian Weasel?
Baseball (or other sport) Weasel?
Construction Weasel?
Techie Weasel?
Nerdy Weasel?
Gardener Weasel?
Self-Portrait weasel? (YOU as weasel)
ANY OTHER KIND OF WEASEL YOU CAN IMAGINE?

NOW: Use this tutorial, created by Sutherland Award winning author-illustrator Elys Dolan to draft your weasel character in your Reading Notebook:


Later in the week, you will make a color drawing (pencil/pen and/or watercolor) of your weasel on nice drawing paper and do some writing about it to share your character with others.
