Is That Direct?

Worksheet Description

Welcome to our “Direct and Indirect Characterization” worksheet, where students will explore the art of unveiling character traits.

Through a series of engaging scenarios, students will encounter pairs of sentences denoting different levels of characterization.

Tasked with identifying the direct characterization in each pair (represented by letters A and B), students will learn to pinpoint explicit descriptions that directly reveal a character’s attributes.

This exercise fosters a deeper comprehension of how authors construct characters through both direct and indirect methods, enhancing critical reading skills.

By the end of this worksheet, students will be adept at recognizing the nuanced ways in which characters come to life within a narrative.
