Character analysis is a skill we use when we read literary works or want to write a good story. Learners will use drama to practice character analysis while focusing on the details that make characters act the way they do. They'll each chose an item from a box, put it on, and then think of who the character is, how they act, where they came from. Then, they'll improve a scene where two or more characters (students) interact. This is a fantastic way to prime learners for a narrative writing project.
