Year 10 Cultural Perspectives - Character Mind Maps.

Here are some examples of Character Mind Maps from 10PTe.

Year 10 Cultural Perspectives: Boy Overboard - Character Mind Map.

Character Mind Map.

After looking at the major themes in the novel we are now concentrating on major characters.The students were asked to focus on:

1. 1 major character in the text. Write down the exterior feelings that the character shows in the text.
2. Write down the interior feelings that the character has but does not show in the text.
3. Write down the thoughts that the character is thinking in a time of need or crisis.
4. The students will be reflecting these feelings/thoughts through a Character Mind Map.
5. They will draw the character and write down the feelings outside the profile of their chosen character.

By doing this, the student's are able to understand the characters in a deeper context.

Here some examples from 10PTe.
