Hola amigos! Today was another slow one. Things are always a little weird in the beginning of the year, but we are getting stuff figured out, and we will be soaring with the rest of the eagles shortly.

Over the summer, I took a series of tests that helped to identify my natural abilities. We all have them, and it was fascinating to learn what mine are. It behooves all of us to have a firm understanding of what our natural abilities are so that we can lean into our strengths. Therefore, I posted the following series of questions and asked that students please address them seriously. Upon completion, please email me your results.

• What is an activity that you engage in outside of school?

• Does your mind default to this activity when you are not doing it?

• If not, to what activity does your mind default to?

• What do you think that you enjoy about this activity?

• What skills or knowledge are you acquiring from this activity?

• Do these skills/knowledge cross over into other domains or activities?

• Do you have a natural ability that helps you be good at this activity? What is the natural ability?

• What are you naturally good at?
