"WHO AM I?" ASSIGNMENT:

Create a collage about yourself on a 12x18" sheet of paper. Start by drawing a circle in the middle of the paper. Write your name in the circle. On the collage, you must have the following:


 * 1) At least 5 images that represent you. These can either be drawn or printed out from the Internet.
 * 2) At least 10 words or phrases that describe you.
 * 3) A 4-6 sentence "self-evaulation" paragraph. Use the "Who am I?" worksheet (with the boxes) and the results from the personality tests to analyze yourself. Some questions to consider for the paragraph (you do not have to answer these questions in your paragraph. They are just ideas to get you started):
 * What results from the online tests confirmed what you wrote in the boxes or already thought of yourself?
 * What was surprising about the results?
 * What do you agree with?
 * What do you disagree with?
 * How can some of your personality traits help you throughout life?
 * Which personality traits would you like to improve?
