I'm working on planning some growth mindset stuff for my classes and one idea I had was to create a character sheet like you'd have in D&D (or some other roleplaying game) so that kids can track their skills and "level up."

So the question is this: what skills would you put on a Theater class character sheet. Stuff like "Projection" and "Stage Directions" or "Balancing the Stage Picture."

The shorter the terms the easier they will be to organize onto a sheet. If you've never roleplayed with dice and paper, they usually have skills like "Deception" or "Larceny."

Right now I'm brainstorming, so all ideas are welcome!

Continuity of character.

Evidence of stakes. 

Openness to audience.

Here's what I've come up with:

Thanks to everyone who contributed ideas! I'll have to see how this works out over the next year. I scaled it one-to-five but as I try it out I may decide to make more ranks within each skill. I've left it open to teachers and students to set SMART goals for determining when they've reached a new level.
