Methods of Characterization!! Horaay!
See the cartoon to the left? Get it? Making SPIRITS bright? I know you're laughing. Ok, onto the methods!

1. Speech
What a character says and how they say it...very important.

2. Thoughts
What's going on inside a character's head? A lot probably!

3. Actions
What a character does can teach a reader, and other characters, a lot about them.

4. Reactions
How other characters respond to events.

5. Relationships The saying goes.........you can tell a lot about a person by who their friends are! Relationships reveal LOADS about a character!

6. Direct Description This is where the writer comes right out and tells you about the character!
