Character Traits Anchor Chart – 4-Chart Set teaching resource preview

Character Traits Anchor Chart – 4-Chart Set

Two illustrated anchor charts teach how readers infer a story character's traits — through what characters say or think, do, feel, and how others describe them — each supplied in a completed poster version and a fill-in-the-blank interactive-notebook version. The chart pairs a four-category graphic organizer (thoughts/words, feelings, actions, and what others say) with a sentence frame, 'This character is (or has) ___. I know this because ___,' for students to justify a trait using text evidence. Teachers can print the completed posters for a bulletin board or hand out the blank versions for students to fill in as guided notes while reading a class novel or short story.

CONFLICT: The FIVE Elements of a Story Graphic Organizers teaching resource preview

CONFLICT: The FIVE Elements of a Story Graphic Organizers

Ten blank graphic organizers each approach a story's conflict from a different angle. Conflict Dissection has students identify characters, setting, the problem and its solution in four quadrants; a Problems and Solutions Chart and a Cause-Effect-Consequences chart trace how a conflict's causes lead to its effects; an Internal or External Conflict chart and a four-column Conflict Type Chart classify the nature of the conflict, sorting it as character-versus-character, -nature, -self or -society; and a six-stage Conflict Timeline, an Opposing Forces Comparison, and a Conflict Map walk students through sequencing and mapping the conflict's events toward its resolution. A two-page instructional key at the front spells out exactly what to fill into each organizer's fields, and a Conflict Analysis page closes the set with a question-and-answer format leading to a written conflict statement. The templates are meant to be paired with a story or novel the class is reading, since none of the organizers are pre-filled with story content. This Conflict pack is one title in a Five Elements of a Story series that also covers Character, Setting, Plot, Theme and a Combined set.
