ABSTRACT

Creating character modules – general hints and tips The following modules on creating characters are self-explanatory. General points

that may help the pupils are:

Having said that characters should be consistent, i.e. act ‘in character’

throughout the story – events also change people. A useful way of developing

characters is to ask the pupils how they (the characters) might be different

by the end of the story. Combining this with the pie chart technique or the

If-Then-Because Game (A bagful of games (Module 24) ) can help to focus

pupils’ thinking on this.
