How Millenial Are You?

 Above are my Millenial Test results. The questions were very in depth I thought. When I think of being "Millenial" I think of engaging in 21st century skils such as technology-based learning. The question concerning contacting an elected official didn't seem too Millenial to me. I consider myself to be somewhat old fashioned and not as much into technology as most. I enjoy hand writing my lesson plans for example. In my intervention groups I do use the laptop and projector to do activities with the students. They enjoy hands-on activites such as math games and online books that are read to them. I enjoyed this activity and also love to take part in activites that tell me about myself in comparison to the world around me!
