Lesson Plan
Roots of Belief Lesson Plan
Students will identify and articulate their core beliefs about themselves and the world, trace each belief’s origin, and reflect on how these beliefs shape their thoughts and actions.
Uncovering personal belief patterns builds self-awareness and critical thinking, empowering students to understand and, if desired, adjust beliefs that impact their behavior and decision-making.
