This standards-based graphic organizer asks students to research a character from any text using character background information. Students must think critically about charaters and character motiviation as they answer each of the questions. Can be used with any grade level from grade 5 through 12, and modified as needed.
This is a pretty comprehensive character analysis worksheet--it asks some interesting questions that students really have to think about. My students' writing and character discussions were much richer.
