Extra Credit? 5 pts. if you test a teacher in True Colors before Wed. 8/26 (Note: once a teacher has been tested, that name can no longer earn you points, so ask the teacher if s/he has done it already. These can be last year's teachers too!)
- Write a 1-2 page narrative essay (that's an essay based on stories from your life!) to describe a real example or two of how your personality type is true in your own life and how it interacts with others.
