Inferring about Character: Getting to Know Percy (Chapters 1 and 2)

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

What a character! Scholars look at two chapters in The Lightning Thief to make inferences about the character Percy. They record both the character's challenges and responses. Learners then work in their triads to discuss the gist of vocabulary words in the first two chapters, and determine what the text reveals about Percy.
