Sorting Based on Character Traits

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Characters from a story can be sorted by their traits, just like shapes or objects can. First the children list several character traits on a chart, they read a familiar story, and then sort the characters by their friendly or unfriendly traits. As a class, they read the story Chrysanthemum by Kevin Henkes and analyze character actions to determine which character should falls under the friendly or unfriendly classification.
