Task 5: Character Development Across Mediums

As a class, reflect on one of the characters from one of Paul Jennings’ stories and the corresponding Round the Twist episode. For example, Tony Twist or one of his three children.  

As an individual written response (or using a visual organiser), have students trace this character’s development from the original story to the television series, and predict how they might evolve in a musical adaptation.
