The previous page is a template for "Top Trump"-style cards to help
in character development.
The idea is that the class play Top Trumps first to get the idea of the
cards. Then the class discuss the characteristics needed for the
character they are about to write about (pirates for my class this
time). These characteristics then are added to the templates before
you print them out on card. One card per person, any fast finishers
can do another. The cards are then a resource for playing games
and for help when writing character descriptions and stories.
