Introduction of character. 10 points.
Character name.
Character description – age, job, relationships, facts, school activities.
Picture of what you believe this person looks like – drawn or cut from a magazine.
Analysis of character. 10 points.
Include traits, quirks, habits. Find and use at least 4 quotations, and at least 5 words from the text
describing this person. There should be one paragraph of your writing that analyzes the
character. Use details from the text and be specific! Quotes and words/phrases can be separate
from your paragraph – artfully applied to your creation.
Symbolism. 10 points.
Include a VISUAL associated with the character. In a paragraph, briefly explain the symbolism
associated with this character.
Character/Theme. 10 points.
First, state a theme. Then, in 3 sentences, explain how the character helps support or illustrate
that theme in the novel. Use a VISUAL to portray this theme, too, if you can.
Cite all pages used (for quotations/vocabulary words) on back of creation.
