Writing about different characters - Tips for kids
<html>
<h3>We all have different characteristics - that is something that is part of your personality and the way you do things. &nbsp;</h3>
<h3>Maybe you are good at sport and helpful and happy. &nbsp;Maybe you are lazy and unhappy. &nbsp;Those are called your characteristics.</h3>

<p><strong>If you want to write a character sketch about somebody you can write about their physical appearance (what they look like) and their personality (how they are and act).</strong></p>
<ul>
  <li><em><strong>You are going to write your own character sketch of somebody you know or you can make up a person. &nbsp;You can even choose a character from a movie, book or play</strong></em><em> - this will be a description of that person. &nbsp;Write it in such a way, that if a person does not know the person you are writing about, they will get to know them through your writing.</em></li>
</ul>
<h3>Follow the following steps to help you write</h3>
<p><strong>Step 1</strong></p>
<p><strong>Write down some adjectives</strong> that you would use to describe the character/person. &nbsp;&nbsp;You really have to think about the person you are describing and use the correct adjectives,</p>
<p><em><strong>Here are some ideas of words you can use &nbsp;(think out more of your own)</strong></em></p>
<p><em>grumpy &nbsp;&nbsp;funny &nbsp;&nbsp;unhappy &nbsp;&nbsp;lazy &nbsp;&nbsp;helpful &nbsp;&nbsp;strange &nbsp;&nbsp;stubborn &nbsp;&nbsp;interesting &nbsp;&nbsp;brave &nbsp;&nbsp;patient &nbsp;&nbsp;clever &nbsp;&nbsp;kind &nbsp;&nbsp;loving &nbsp;&nbsp;honest &nbsp;&nbsp;scruffy &nbsp;&nbsp;busy &nbsp;&nbsp;friendly &nbsp;pretty &nbsp;tall &nbsp;short</em></p>
<p><strong>Step 2</strong></p>
<p><strong>Think about how this person acts every day</strong> and how you have experienced their personalities and what you have seen them do.</p>
<p><strong>Step 3</strong></p>
<p><strong>If you need help, you can use the following framework</strong> or you can write the character sketch in the way you want.</p>
<p><em>My character looks like _____</em></p>
<p><em>He/she is good/are not good at _____</em></p>
<p><em>He/she feels ____ towards _____ because _____</em></p>
<p><em>Other people think he/she is ______</em></p>
<p><em>He/she has changed/not changed since I have known them (give examples)</em></p>
<p><em>I think he/she is ______</em></p>
<p><strong>Fill in extra ideas and use full sentences and descriptions (think before you write - there is no wrong way, you have to use your imagination and what you know)</strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 4</strong></p>
<p><strong>Plan</strong> your character sketch, then <strong>edit</strong> it by correcting spelling, punctuation and word order and <strong>write it out neatly.</strong></p>
<p><strong>Step 5</strong></p>
<p><strong>Draw a picture or make a collage</strong> using photos/pictures of the person you wrote the character sketch on.</p>
