Villains-The Antagonist

As we discussed in class, the White Witch is the villain in The Lion, The Witch, and The Wardrobe. Read the questions below and create a thoughtful, original post. Ideas should be your focus. 

Villains are called antagonists because they "oppose" the main character (protagonist). Antagonists keep the story going by creating challenges for the main character (protagonist). 

Antagonist comes from the Greek word antagonistes. It means "rival."

1. Choose the White Witch and another villain of your choice. What characteristics are the same among these villains?

2. How does your villain compare with other villains that your classmates have listed?

  11. 2.The head of police and edmund are the same because they both work for the white witch. But are different because the head of police works because of devotion Edmund works because he wants to be the king and rool over Peter!!

  16. 1.The White Witch and Morgrim (her wolf). They both are mean and they will do what ever it takes to find and capture the sons of Adam and the daughters of Eve. They both do NOT like Aslan and are VERY territorial.

    2.I think that Morgrim and the Dwarf are alike because they both work for the witch and they both are rude, unhappy and willing to do anything the witch says.
