FREE LANGUAGE ARTS LESSON - “Character Traits Graphic Organizer Common Core Language Acquisition”

by James Whitaker
1st - 8th Grade


Materials/Resources Preface:

This graphic organizer is pretty straightforward. Students should focus on one character from literature or film, or even a real life person, and begin to brainstorm specific personality character traits that are relevant to their character. The graphic provides space for 4 characters traits. This is a simple, variation of one of my other sale products (Character Trait Graphic Organizer Text Common Core Bulletin Board). Nevertheless, this graphic can be used as a stepping stone for below level or ESL/ELL students. This varied form only allows for gathering four traits without space to analyze or provide examples.

You can also use the graphic organizer for a basic bulletin board display or illustrate the writing process by coupling the organizer with a more thorough writing piece on literary characters and their dynamic qualities. Don’t forget to have students provide (or you provide for them) a picture of the character or person of focus. Visuals will enhance your bulletin display, of course. Students can also decorate the organizers! Please cut on the dotted lines for a better display presentation.

Again you can use this activity to explore the traits, attributes, or qualities of:

< Literary Characters
< Film Characters
< Entertainers and Idols
< Everyday People
< Family Members

Please feel free to ask any questions—I will definitely respond to all inquiries in a timely fashion. Please, check out my other products and resources. Hopefully they will help strengthen your lessons, help your students learn, and make your life easier. Thank you and enjoy!
