Black-and-white comic-style illustration titled Characterization Activity 2. On a rainy day outside a school, a boy with curly hair crouches and holds an umbrella over a sad classmate who sits hugging his knees on the steps. A school bus waits in the background, and a sign reads "Kind people stronger schools." Caption: Jamal didn't hesitate. When he saw his classmate sitting in the rain, he opened his umbrella and held it over both of them until the bell rang.
