Negative thoughts have a profound effect on students’ academic and social successes, behaviors, emotions, self-esteem, and happiness. Negative thinking and self-talk can hold them back and keep them from their full potential.

Empower students to escape negative thinking by guiding them to reframe negative, faulty thoughts to positive thoughts. These engaging, highly relevant activities, scenarios, and writing/discussion prompts can support you in helping your students develop this critical life skill: the ability to take notice of their thoughts, to step back and view the “bigger” picture, and to decide how to act based on that more realistic perspective.
