High 5 Friday (and Monday!!) and Deadlines

Research shows it's better for us to lean into & grow our strengths 

than it is to try to improve our weaknesses. 

So let's fine out what your strengths and weakness, go to the website below and take the High 5 Test. For those of you interested in this stuff, it is a personality inventory. There are a bunch of these and we might do a few more of these (True Colors and/or Meyers-Briggs).

https://high5test.com

When you get your results, THREE STEPS, but first:

Read these shorter summaries about your strengths (starting on the second page)

1. On a piece of paper (put your name at the top), write down your High 5 Strengths in, with a few words from the above summaries to describe that strength.

2. Then write a response telling me your five strengths and why they sound like you. (Bonus, if you're interested: you can email your results to a close friend and have them weigh in on which strengths they think sound like you). 

3. Go write your name on the board five times (legibly), under each of your five strengths. We want to see what strengths we have as a group AND what strengths we have in each class.

SO:

If you're in 6th period, write your name in blue.

If you're in 2nd period, write your name in red.

If you're a doubler, write your name in both colors!

Turn in your paper to me when you are finished.
