Character Traits

     We have been getting to know the characters in our books by studying their words and actions. We can notice patterns of how the character acts to come up with a big idea or theory about his or her character. In Writing Workshop, we are developing a character map for a realistic fiction character. We are mapping out physical traits and character traits. Please share about a character you are developing in Writing Workshop. Who is the main character in your realistic fiction story? What are his or her character traits? Will your character change across the story?

  2. The character I am currently developing is the owner of Microsoft. Not Bill Gates, though. This character is greedy characteristically and piglike in physical appearance. An employee (unnamed, undeveloped character) wants to team with Google's CEO, Sundar Pichai. The reason they are doing this is because of Google Earth, which maps out the whole planet. The reason they care about this is because they want to create the real world in Minecraft due to Microsoft now owning Minecraft. After spending time and money on this project, a group of employees decide to lobby against the owner because many people are getting laid off. Then, the owner of Microsoft has a change of heart. He decides to be nicer to his employees and attempts to get their jobs back.

Her traits are sweet, kind, loving, and helpful. Christopher has short brown hair and dresses every single day in a different sport jersey with a different number and a different person. His traits are helpful, brave, kind, and sweet.
