Welcome back to school!
Transcript: Welcome back! Are you a penguin or a polar bear? What will our students be? It is great to have some new faces this year! Let's start the year by getting to know a little bit about who you are. Today I think we will use the jellybean test. The white jelly bean person likes to control the environment and likes a lot of praise. S/he is always trying to earn brownie points; gets reports in weeks before the deadline. The black jelly bean person smiles a lot, is enthusiastic and always playful. In fact, s/he usually plays around at workshops, meetings, and conferences. The green jelly bean person is a peacemaker, doesn’t like conflict. S/he likes to get black and white jelly bean people to organize his/her projects. S/he might be superintendent sooner than you think. The pink jelly bean person can be a skilled brown-noser. S/he often “volunteers” to do a little more, especially when the superintendent or principal asks. The orange jelly bean person dresses well; likes luxury items such as gold bracelets, watches, and chains. In fact, s/he likes possessions and might stay at school to horde supplies; or after meetings to horde handouts. The purple jelly bean person needs fulfillment. S/he might question an assignment, want to do it differently. She/he can have a problem dealing with highly structured time, such as meetings. The red jelly bean person can be extremely frustrated. In fact, researchers would like you to submit your name and address for future research! The yellow jelly bean person is the thinker of the group and is very independent. In fact, s/he often doesn’t follow meeting rules, polices, or procedures. http://jlwebster.wikispaces.com/ http://www.wikispaces.com/site/tour http://www.wikispaces.com/site/for/teachers The Webster Dance
