In 1900, L. Frank Baum wrote the classic story called The Wizard of Oz. The story

became so popular that in 1939 it was made into a movie musical. People still

enjoy this popular fairy tale. After you have seen the movie or read the book, use

the grid below to classify, or sort, the characters according to their traits.

Write +for yes and –for no.

Okay, my pretties. Look for patterns on the grid to

help you make generalizations.

Dorothy

Toto

Cowardly Lion

Scarecrow

Tin Man

The Wizard

Glinda the Good Witch

Wicked Witch of the West

Auntie Em

Uncle Henry

Use the grid to write two generalizations, or true statements, about the story characters.
