From the activity we did at school today -record your personality on your learning crest. You or your parents might like to try the quiz on the links list to find out more...


Driver (Lion/Bear):
Objective-focused
Know what they want and how to get there!
Communicates quickly, gets to the point
Sometimes tactless and brusque
Can be an "ends justify the means" type of person
Hardworking, high energy ?Does not shy away from conflict

Expressive (Otter/Monkey):
Natural salesmen or story-tellers
Warm and enthusiastic
Good motivators, communicators
Can be competitive
Can tend to exaggerate, leave out facts and details
Sometimes would rather talk about things than do them!

Amiable (Turtle/Dove):
Kind-hearted people who avoid conflict
Can blend into any situation well
Can appear wishy-washy Has difficulty with firm decisions

Analytical (Fox/Owl):

No one personality type outshines the other or is preferable to the other - but all complement each other in different ways. If you are choosing a team for a difficult task, it is a good idea to have representation for each on your team for a balanced approach to the task at hand.

  1. Aidan and I followed the link to the Personality Quiz. It was fun! We found out Aidan is an ESP and so many things rang true to us both. We had lots of laughs. It's good to have the explanations of what it all means, giving us clear instructions on how to help Aidan during his learning years. Thank you : )
