Activity
Students select a silhouette that describes their own personality the best. Characters are used that are familiar to students through books, television and movies in order to illustrate the different traits and personality types. By using familiar characters, students will have a frame of reference as they decide which set of characteristics describes them the best. New vocabulary words are introduced and discussed at the beginning of the activity.
