Reading passage followed by a character analysis activity for 8th-grade students:


"The Secret Garden" (Excerpt)
Mary Lennox was born in India. She was a sour-faced, healthy, and self-centered child. She liked no one and no one liked her. When she was 9 years old, she was sent to
England to live with her uncle, Mr. Craven, after her parents died of cholera.
Arriving at her uncle's estate, Misselthwaite Manor, Mary found herself lonely and bored. She often wandered through the vast, empty rooms of the manor and the
neglected gardens surrounding it. One day, while exploring the grounds, she stumbled upon a hidden key and a locked door. Intrigued, Mary ventured through the door and
discovered a long-abandoned garden, hidden from view and overrun with weeds.
Despite the neglected state of the garden, Mary felt drawn to it. She began secretly visiting the garden every day, determined to bring it back to life. As she worked, Mary's
sour disposition gradually softened, and she found joy in the simple pleasures of gardening. Along the way, she made friends with Dickon, a local boy who had a special
connection with nature, and Colin, her sickly cousin who had been hidden away in the manor for years.
Together, Mary, Dickon, and Colin transformed the secret garden into a place of beauty and healing, symbolizing the renewal of life and the power of friendship.

Character Analysis Activity:


Choose one of the main characters from the passage (Mary Lennox, Dickon, or Colin) and complete the character analysis worksheet below. Use evidence from the
passage to support your analysis.
Character Analysis Worksheet:
Character's Name:
Traits: Describe the character's personality traits based on their actions, words, and interactions with others in the passage.

Motivations: What motivates the character to act the way they do? Consider their desires, fears, and past experiences mentioned in the passage.

Development: How does the character change or grow throughout the passage? Identify any significant transformations or realizations they experience.

Relationships: Describe the character's relationships with other characters in the passage. How do these relationships influence their actions and decisions?

Significance: What is the character's role or significance in the passage? How do they contribute to the development of the plot and themes?

Example Response:
Character's Name: Mary Lennox
Traits:
 At the beginning of the passage, Mary is described as sour-faced, healthy, and self-centered. She dislikes everyone and is disliked by others. However, as the
passage progresses, Mary's disposition softens, and she becomes more caring and compassionate, especially towards Dickon and Colin.
Motivations:
 Mary's motivation stems from her loneliness and boredom upon arriving at Misselthwaite Manor. She is drawn to the secret garden as a place of solace and escape
from her dreary surroundings. Her desire to bring the garden back to life reflects her newfound sense of purpose and connection with nature.
Development:
 Throughout the passage, Mary undergoes significant development as she transitions from a sour and self-centered child to a caring and compassionate friend. Her
interactions with Dickon and Colin, as well as her efforts to restore the garden, contribute to her personal growth and emotional transformation.
Relationships:
 Mary forms close relationships with Dickon and Colin, who play crucial roles in her journey of self-discovery. Dickon's deep connection with nature and Colin's
vulnerability help Mary recognize the beauty and healing power of friendship. These relationships enable Mary to overcome her loneliness and find happiness in
the company of others.
Significance:
 Mary is the protagonist of the passage, driving the plot forward through her exploration of the secret garden and her interactions with other characters. Her
transformation from a lonely and unhappy child to a joyful and compassionate friend illustrates the central themes of renewal, friendship, and the transformative
power of nature.
