Lesson Plan

What Makes You, You? Lesson Plan

Students will identify and prioritize their core personal values through reflection, sorting activities, and group sharing, culminating in articulating one word that embodies their most significant value.

Developing self-awareness and emotional intelligence helps students understand what truly matters to them, fosters a respectful classroom community, and guides future decision-making.
