This resource includes 4 x worksheets. Each worksheet contains an extract describing a famous fictional character. Here, these are Dr No (James Bond_, Gollum, Mrs Pratchett and a witch from the Witches. Pupils are asked to identify a range of tasks using colours and symbols. Then, they are given another picture linked by the theme of the first extract. They can plan their description using the planning boxes provided. Once they have described their own character, using the image, they can then self assess which skills they have used from the reading task. Easily adaptable and easy to set for independent learning. Easier for pupils to print out and then complete the tasks. Please see my other describing character tasks (booklet).
