Lesson plan
Aang
Avatar Aang ( ), or simply Aang, is a fictional character and the titular main protagonist of Nickelodeon's animated television series Avatar: The Last Airbender, created by Michael Dante DiMartino and Bryan Konietzko. He is voiced by Zach Tyler Eisen. Aang was the last surviving Airbender, a monk of the Air Nomads' Southern Air Temple, and the youngest ever airbending master (of his generation). He is an incarnation of the "Avatar", the spirit of light and peace manifested in human form. As the Avatar, Aang controls all four elements (water, earth, fire, and air) and is tasked with bringing balance and keeping the Four Nations at peace. In Avatar: The Last Airbender, he is chronologically 112 years old (biologically 12), and he died chronologically at age 166 (biologically 66.) Aang is the series' reluctant hero, spending a century in suspended animation in an iceberg before being discovered and joining new friends Katara and Sokka on a quest to master the elements and save their world from the imperialist Fire Nation. As Aang progresses through his journey, he is joined by Toph, Zuko and Suki. Aang's character has appeared in other media, such as trading cards, video games, T-shirts, and web comics. Avatar Aang was also portrayed by Noah Ringer in the live-action film The Last Airbender (2010) and voiced by D.B. Sweeney in the sequel series The Legend of Korra.…
