Let’s Link Up Our Strengths! Personal Strength Activity

This fun individual activity has your students identifying a range of strengths and then linking them together to create a fantastic chain of strengths. Students will illustrate and describe each of the following personal strengths:

  • Language Strength
  • Logic Strength
  • Physical Strength
  • Health Strength
  • People Strength
  • Creative Strength
  • Nature Strength
  • Self Strength
  • Greatest Strength

You may like to print these templates on colored paper and allow students to pick which few types of strengths they want to write about. For example, some children may have a lot of creative strengths over physical strengths – and that’s okay!

How to Use This Resource in the Classroom

Once your students have written 6-10 strengths, they can link them up, and you may like to hang each chain up; alternatively, you may want to join all of the strengths together. 

This becomes a wonder display that students can add to throughout the term or even the year as they notice a new strength they may have – a great year-long self-esteem-boosting activity for the whole class!

Use the dropdown menu to choose between the PDF or editable Google Slide version of this resource. It is advised to either print the links on colored paper – or have your students decorate the links to make sure they stand out when they are displayed.
