Thinking about settings with Leigh Hobbs

SUBJECTS:  English

YEARS:  F–2, 3–4, 5–6, 7–8


As Leigh Hobbs says, the great thing about inventing a character is that you also have the power to choose where they live.

What's your character's world like?

Describe your character at home. Where do they live? And what do they do there?

Now choose a completely different location and plonk your character there. Think about what your character would do at this new location. How would they behave?

Do some writing that describes what happens in this new setting.
