Personality Assessment (Colors)
READ THE ENTIRE SHEET BEFORE YOU SUBMIT IT! The Colors Test! This assignment is one of my favorites! It may be eye-opening or it may validate what you already know about yourself. There is no right or wrong color combination. One color is not better than another. We are just different. Once you understand yourself and others, you’re ready to enjoy life. A personality test is not a means to typecast, but it allows teachers to understand the personality attributes associated with various students. You will operate as one primary color for the most part, but high levels of stress and other environmental factors can shift your personality type for short intervals. As a rule of thumb, you should recognize your strong attributes and keep in mind the attributes that irritate people.
Take the assessments and answer the questions. There is a question you'll need to answer on this form. It is highlighted for you.

Skills Inventory. Multiple Intelligences (MI)
All of us are "smart" in different ways. Knowing how you are "smart" will support you in the classroom and long after you have graduated from high school. Let's say, for example, you are in a history class and have to memorize many dates to pass a big test. Memorizing facts just isn't easy for you. However, you just happen to know you are "music smart". Make up a song with those dates in them. Voila! Success!
