I always struggle with my preteen middle school student's guidance lessons.
Until..... I found this!
I am not going to waste your time {okay... or mine}
posting where I found all the super cool 7 Habits handouts, videos, and lots of freebies!
Just go HERE ----- Pinterest!
I have to be honest. I was a little worried that my 6th graders would think {blah, blah, blah} BUT they loved it.
Here is the run down:
Each lesson, we will discuss a habit of the 7 Habits of Happy kids.
For lesson 1, our topic was Be Proactive!
I asked the students what does is mean to be proactive?
Students, then had to write down things they were in charge of. What are choices you can make for yourself? {ideas: choose my friends, choose my clothes, choose what I eat, etc.}
We also did an activity where students had to write down the things they control and those they do not. Some of the ideas I gave them were: a parent's bad day, my day, walking away from trouble, asking for help, where I was born, what other people say or do, etc.
We then watched the videos, I posted to my Pinterest boards.
There are a lot of great ideas out there for lessons geared toward being proactive! Enjoy!
