Animal Personality Test 8/21

Understanding more about your personality and learning style helps you become a more successful learner and member of a working group.  Find out your animal personality by clicking the link.  Click here to find today's worksheet to go along with the animal personality test.  When you are finished, fill in your information on this spreadsheet.



When you are finished with the animal personality test, you will take a learning profile test.  At the end of the test, you will see a special kind of circle graph, called a radar graph.
To save this graph,
1.  press the "PrtScn" key on your keyboard.  This takes a screen shot and copies it to your clipboard.
2.  Open Power Point.  Erase what is on the screen, then hit "Ctrl" and "V" to paste the image on the slide.
3.  Use the crop tool to cut the picture down to a usable frame.
4.  Add a picture of your animal.  Try to choose an image that is clear and easy to see from across the room.
5.  Place/size images so it takes up the top 1/3 of the paper.  Print to the 7th grade lab.
6.  Glue to the back of your notebook.
