Cell Phone Characterization, PDF & Google Drive, Literature or History Activity

Add a little fun to ANY novel, play, short story, or history unit with this worksheet where students choose a character (or historic figure) and fill a fictional cell phone with email messages, playlist entries, and a wallpaper image.

This PDF file and Google Drive version includes a blank form and a completed sample to show students, if you wish. The sample is from my students’ study of To Kill a Mockingbird, showing Scout Finch’s cell phone content, but you could use this worksheet with ANY work of literature. A separate option for history classrooms is included, too.

Hope you enjoy this activity, which works with students in grades 6-12.
