- Word Document File
Description
GOOGLE VERSION AVAILABLE HERE!
This two-day activity has students taking an adapted Myers-Briggs test to discover their personality type.
Then, using a Business Insider article, students will be assigned a job based on their personality types, similar to what happens in Lois Lowry's The Giver.
Finally, students will write about whether or not they agree with the results of the test and if they think they would enjoy the job assigned to them. Generally speaking, I have found the results to be incredibly accurate (often to the surprise of students).
Included:
1) Myers-Briggs Personality Type Test adapted to fit middle school/high school
2) Test answer sheet/directions on how to calculate scores
3) Business Insider article explaining personality types and recommended jobs
4) Worksheet for reflection
