Read page 31 to the top of page 35 in Haroun and the Sea of Stories. Write a characterization statement about Mr. Butt, including a list of at least three pieces of text evidence and which type of evidence each is (STEAL). You ONLY need to find text evidence, don't worry about explaining it out. Then, write several sentences DESCRIBING the way that Mr. Butt talks. What do you notice? Pick one of the following characters: Haroun, Rashid, Soraya, Mr. Sengupta, or Ms. Oneeta. Find descriptions about the character of your choice that represents two different methods of indirect characterization. Use text evidence. Then draw a conclusion about the character’s personality. Methods of Indirect Characterization: Speech (What does the character say?) Thoughts (What does the character think?) Effect on others (How do others react to/interact with the character?) Actions (What does the character do?) Looks (What does the character look like?) Check out the example below. You can complete the work like a chart, or in a paragraph format.  |
