I think that it is important for students to be able to relate to characters. At the first grade level we are teaching children how to read and enjoy books, but one of the most important factors in a good book is how you relate to a character. Great characters pull you into a book and set the pace for reading. In order to teach my little ones this valuable lesson, we could do a character study. At a young age, my students might not be drawn to a sheet filled with words, so I found these sheets on Ed Helper. They offer a more kid friendly approach to a character study.
