Personality-Driven Predictions Answer Key

Directions: Read each character profile carefully. Read the situation that follows. Predict what the character will do based on their personality traits. Write your prediction in 2-3 sentences.

This worksheet helps students connect personality traits to believable character actions, an essential skill in both reading comprehension and narrative writing. By examining profiles and applying them to new situations, students learn how traits influence choices, reactions, and behavior. The exercise encourages thoughtful reasoning and helps students justify predictions using evidence from the character descriptions. This builds deeper understanding of characterization and strengthens inferential thinking.

Practicing these skills prepares students to analyze characters more effectively across all genres. They learn to recognize patterns in human behavior, anticipate logical outcomes, and support their reasoning with text-based evidence. These skills are especially important for understanding literature with complex characters and subtle motivations.
