Unmasking Me by Tyree Gaines https://padlet.com/tgaines13/y07yxjwbp2j3jhbe Things you may not know just by looking. en-us 2025-06-26 00:59:05 UTC 2025-06-26 01:20:40 UTC hello@padlet.com https://media1.giphy.com/media/v1.Y2lkPWNhYmM5OTE4eDZ2YjNneHRjOG9mOTd4NGdmMzNlM2V6c2dpM3ozYTA0Z2l4YW1vdSZlcD12MV9naWZzX3NlYXJjaCZjdD1n/l617W078T9ZxJz4GUt/giphy.gif Unmasking Me: Directions tgaines13 https://padlet.com/tgaines13/y07yxjwbp2j3jhbe/wish/3502308247 Welcome to your first challenge as part of the Trailblazers Class of 2026.
We all wear masks sometimes—ones that hide our fears, dreams, talents, and even our humor. This is your chance to drop the mask and show us who you really are.

On this wall, create a post that includes the following:

  • A picture or gif that represents part of who you are (can be silly or serious)

  • A nickname or title for yourself (e.g., “The Quiet Storm” or “CEO of Bounce-Backs”)

  • Answer these 3 questions in your post:

    1. What’s something most people don’t know about me?

    2. What’s something I’m proud of?

    3. What do I need from my teachers and classmates this year to feel safe, strong, and successful?

Please refer to MY post for an example of a way you can respond.


Finally, respond to at least two classmates’ posts, giving a compliment or saying what you can relate to.

  • Most people don’t know I write plays that have been published and preach sermons on Sundays. It's the way I can release all that's on the inside in a creative and spiritual way.

  • I’m proud of how I show up strong even when life is heavy.

  • I need honesty, consistency, and energy from my students. Let’s build something together this year.
