After finishing Bud, Not Buddy a few weeks ago, I wanted to complete one more Bud, Not Buddy assignment. The students just finished state testing, so I didn’t want to overwhelm them with another paper or poem analysis. I decided to let them choose a character from Bud, Not Buddy, and create a faux Instagram or Facebook for the character. They REALLY loved this! All of the students really got into it, and were trying to one up each other with silly comments, emoji, and pictures. Most of them wanted to pretend to be Bud Caldwell, and I had a few students decide to mix it up. Their social media account of choice? INSTAGRAM! Out of 80 students, I only had three students turn in Facebook profiles!
