This is a terrific teaching tool for teachers. I created my own trading cards at the
Trading Cards website by ReadWriteThink.org. Actually, it's adapted - I did my fair share of cutting and pasting, since the website wouldn't allow me to save my cards electronically. Encourage your students to use this website, or make your own version of character trading cards. I did have some trouble printing them out. Here's an idea for using character cards after reading a story... students could create 2 versions of trading cards: one with pictures and character names; the other with a character description. Students could play "memory" by matching all trading cards.
