Printable trading card worksheet
In short
This free printable trading card worksheet has a life-size card outline (63 × 88 mm) and boxes for a name, title, three stats, an ability and a one-line fact. Students plan the card on paper, then make it in Wallzy. Print it at 100% on A4 or Letter.
Students plan their card on paper first: what the picture shows, which facts matter most and how to say them in a few words. Print this page, hand it out, then make the cards in the editor.

How to use it
