Creating a positive environment for students is a top priority, but it can be difficult when individuals lack an awareness of the impact of their words towards others, especially when it does not affect them in the same way. This activity brings awareness and a better understanding, while also increasing empathy and care toward others. I also like to remind students that we cannot control what other people chose to say and do, though we can take time to educate and create awareness, especially when something they are saying or doing is impacting us. This lesson can be customized to fit whatever statements would be most beneficial in recognizing within your school.

Improve your students' communication skills with this engaging character education resource focused on genuine communication. Designed to help students who struggle to effectively express themselves, this comprehensive guide covers essential aspects such as active listening, proper responses, recognizing negative listening patterns, developing empathy, and giving and receiving constructive feedback. Empower your students to become confident and empathetic communicators with this invaluable educational tool.

Activities include:

• Identifying non-verbal language
• Learning negative listening styles and habits
• Identifying the feelings of other people
• Learning and practice attending skills and reflecting skills
• Learning how to handle positive and negative feedback.

This workbook allows you to reflect and gain insight into who you are – Discovering and clarifying your values, identity and sense of belonging. We say “discover” or “clarify” because our values are already a part of us. We just need to dig a little and find them. Knowing and living your values is essentially a map on how to be more authentic (or more yourself).

Your personal values are like a roadmap to live your life by. The destination is your authentic expression. They will provide you with clarity and vision, as well as confidence to stay the distance. Knowing your values means that you can easily get back on track even if you stray off the path.

Everyone has personal values. By acknowledging and living your values you bring an awareness and rhythm to your life, a sense of inner peace and understanding. Aligning yourself with your values can also help you to live an authentic life.

By exploring and narrowing down your personal values through this workbook you are clarifying what is important to you and show a commitment to making those values a priority.

-Personal Values are important – why?
