All imagery collection does not occur simultaneously the process is split into multiple collections across states, which vary seasonally. The images shown here were collected in 20. The Department of Agriculture collects high-resolution aerial imagery across the contiguous United States every two years. Taking even a little interest in them as an individual makes all the difference to anyone with a green personality.All images were derived from the National Agricultural Imagery Program (NAIP) and accessed via the Descartes Labs geospatial data platform. Spend time discussing their personal goals and touch base with them often. For those teaching greens of any age, try not to get frustrated when they point out any flaws in your teaching or when they bombard you with increasingly in-depth questions. Help them identify what they are passionate about and point them in the direction of potential careers within those interests. Allow them to share their insights whenever possible. They want others to notice their competence and intellect so complimenting them on specific knowledge that they share is a great way to get them to open up even further.įor those of you teaching high school, continue to cultivate the natural curiosity that your green students have. This helps build trust with them and shows that you are willing to foster a relationship that is unique to their learning style. Allow your class to ask questions or contribute ideas anonymously, or use email as a way to communicate with them. Your green students need to respect you as a teacher before they will be willing to learn from you. It will probably be a little uncomfy for the green at first, but there never was any comfort in the growth zone or growth in the comfort zone. Next time you switch up your seating chart, try sitting your green students near your blue students. And yet as different as they are, the friendship works. Watson is also brilliant, but a lot more approachable and has a healthier work-life balance. Sherlock is absolutely brilliant, often comes across as arrogant, and he only focuses on the case in front of him. Consider the unlikely friendship of Sherlock and Watson. They might overwhelm a green by the ease in which they talk about their emotions, but it also helps greens be aware of their own emotions.

Blues care about genuine connections and they know how to befriend someone in a way that the other person needs. Blues are social, but not overwhelmingly so (like an orange), and they can think in abstract terms just as well as a green can. Your blue students are the perfect pairing for your green students. Your secret weapon? Those bubbly, blue students in your classroom. Greens probably won’t completely come out of their shell while in class, but there are ways you can get them to poke their heads out and look around. They are inclined to get directly to the point and they don’t feel the need to stop along the way for social calls. The other students might see them as cold, critical, and callous but it’s really just that they prefer to do their own thing in their own way. On the contrary, they might open up easily but they don’t always have the awareness to know when to stop.

They are usually overflowing with knowledge but they don’t always know how to open up. Give them time to internalize new information and to recharge after social interactions.

Whenever possible, meet with them one-on-one or in small groups and you’ll get a much better idea about where they are at with the material. Not only do they struggle with social interactions, they can feel stifled by group work because it doesn’t give them a chance to explore concepts in depth. Much like a plant, those who lean green thirst for knowledge and absolutely thrive in the right environment.įor starters, these students are your introverts. They are calm, cool, and collected–until emotions get involved. Kids with a green personality are independent thinkers and come across as being far older than their years. They are logical and analytical while still managing to be creative and abstract. They love a good challenge and using their intellect to solve problems. They have an insatiable curiosity and they are willing to die any (metaphorical) deaths in their quest for enlightenment. I’m sure a lot of you are familiar with the phrase “curiosity killed the cat”, but how many are you familiar with the entire phrase? “Curiosity killed the cat, but satisfaction brought it back.” This expressions aptly describes the inquisitive souls that have a green personality.
