How to describe characters
3. Why do you know he/she is like that? Choose a connector and justify your choice for the
adjective.Example: At the beginning, Jack is lazy because he doesn’t
help his mother.
4. When you finish your description for each adjective, you can write longer sentences or paragraphs by using connectors and openers.
Example:
At the beginning, Jack is lazy because he does not help his
mother but, when he works for other people, he is very hard-
working. Also, he is obedient because he always does what
her mother says.
