Overview
What Are Stick Figure Quotes?
The Stick Figure Quotes strategy provides a creative outlet for students while engaging them in an intellectually rigorous activity of character analysis. Students collect and use evidence from a text, sorting passages or quotations from the text based on the degree of importance or relevance. This process of character analysis also fosters greater understanding and empathy as students identify how a character thinks and what is important to them. While this strategy is often used with literary characters, you could also have students create stick figures for a historical figure, using the figure’s own words as the quotes.
