In this activity, we will work with our talents, skills and qualities.Before doing the activity, check the vocabulary you don’t understand with your teacher.Let’s start by defining what these things are. • Talent: a special, natural often athletic, creative, or artistic aptitude.• Skill: the ability to do something well.• Quality: a distinctive attribute or characteristic possessed by someone.For example, someone could have an excellent physical coordination (talent), he/she could be a great volleyball player (skill), and he/she could be really good at encouraging others (quality) and therefore, be chosen as the captain of the volleyball team.
