Character Profiles | Learning activity

Article

In small groups, students create character profiles from texts. Throughout the activity, they’ll focus on the psychological traits of the characters, their likes and dislikes, their physical traits, quotes, actions, etc. Guiding questions are provided to help the students fill the character profiles charts, but they can also be modified as necessary to match ongoing class work and literature assignments. This activity can be repeated with any text or media using a blank character profile template.
