Character Book Report
Due Monday, November 16th
1. Create a life-sized model of your favorite character and dress
him/her as they are dressed in the book. Stand behind your character and
describe yourself as the character. Tell what your role is in the book and
how you relate to the other characters.
2. Interview a character from your book. Write at least ten questions
that will give the character the opportunity to discuss his/her thoughts and
feelings about his/her role in the story. However you choose to present your
interview is up to you. One idea might be a puppet show. (Be sure you have
well thought out answers.)
3. Write a diary that one of the story's main characters might have kept
at different point in the story. Remember that the character's thoughts and
feelings are very important in a diary.
4. Write a FULL (physical, emotional, relational) description of two of
the characters in the book. Draw a portrait to accompany each description.
5. Do a collage/poster showing pictures or 3-d items that related to the
character in your book, and then present your collage to explain the items
you chose and how they describe the character.
6. Choose birthday gifts for one of the characters involved in the
story. Make an illustration of the gifts and explain why you chose them.
Be sure that whatever book report you choose to do shows a deep understanding
of the character/s and the story.
