Description
This Character Trait Dictionary has been a staple in my classroom for many years. It is full of positive and negative character traits to help students identify the qualities of different personalities of people in real life and in stories. The activity pages help them practice identifying these characteristics before having to use them with a novel study.

- character trait dictionary cover with a place to include traits of the student
- 3 pages of character traits with definitions (108 words and definitions)
- a physical characteristic worksheet to help students learn the difference between character traits

This is exactly what i have been looking for! Character trait vocabulary is expected in much of the work that we do in fourth grade and yet there are not a lot of tool to help students learn this vocabulary. I love that this resource has a large variety of words but more importantly includes kid friendly definitions. Excellent.
amazing resource for students to learn vocabulary and helps with characterization
Wonderful resource to explore characterization of story characters. Great resource.
This was very helpful for a project we did. Simple definitions and easy for 3rd graders to understand.
Great! Really enjoyed using this in my classroom.
Great resource for a very important skill. My students struggle with knowing much of the vocabulary that goes along with character traits.
I used parts of this resource during a formal evaluation. It worked out very well and the students were able to use the work to complete the independent part of the lesson. Thank you!
Awesome! Thanks so much Priscilla! I am so glad this resource worked out so well for you and your students, especially for an evaluation. :-) Thanks so much for the great feedback! - Hilary
This really helps the students with character traits. Thank you for your time and resource.
