Character Report Cards
By Ms. J
Although this doesn't necessarily introduce them to a variety of traits all at once, you can introduce 4-5 at a time and gradually add to your list.
I just had my students do this today, and they loved it. I explained that they were going to give a character from a recent story we read a report card. On the report card, it listed a trait, a place for the student to write in a grade, and a few lines that provided an explanation for the grade. The traits listed on this report card were intelligence, courageous, friendship, and responsible.
The traits can be changed each time, and they really understand this concept. The students loved being "the teacher" and really provided interesting insight as to why they gave the character the grade they did.
Hope this helps you!
