In this 5 week Class your student will learn the following topics through handouts, videos from me, stories and crafts! Each week there is a new topic building on the goal of Developing and maintaining a healthy Self Esteem. Each topic corresponds to the learning goal and all activities are planned to achieve that week's learning goal and skills. 

 Weekly topics include: 
**What is Self-Esteem?
(Learn what self-esteem is and where it comes from)

*Positive Self Talk: How do we say positive things about ourselves and where can I add it?
(Learn how to use positive self talk)

*Negative Self Talk: Quieting the Bully in your brain- How negative thoughts, needing to be perfect, feeling like failing can affect how we see ourselves. 
(Learn how to challenge negative thoughts )

*Being your own best friend: Changing the script and perspective- What would you say to your best friend? 
(Learn self-assurance & being confident in the things that we say and do)

*Connection: How are our feelings connected to our behavior?- Learning how we can feel more positive and do more positive things! 
(Learn the CBT model & Learn some ways to express your feelings and understanding how this builds self worth)

I will post an instructional video each week to check in with your student and also make sure materials are understood and explained well. The class is 5 weeks long and each week will cover new topics that are broken into Units & lessons related to building confidence and positive self skills. Students will define what Positive Self talk is and complete Social Emotional Handouts, and learn more about themselves. 

There is one pre-quiz at the beginning to see where your child is at and how much they know about self esteem and themselves. 

Post quiz allows your child to summarize what they have now learned and see how much they have grown over the last 5 weeks!!!
