What Color is Your Personality?

Time for a TEST! Let’s take a look at your strengths and personality traits by taking a little test.

You will have about 10 minutes…if you do not know what a word means use a device to look it up!

Here is an answer key… You need to check your answers and then tally your score for each color below. You will then sit in groups of people with a “similar personality”. (based on color) I will then read to you the traits of those individuals.
