In a world of excess, it can be hard to focus our happiness on the small things. In this fun and interactive class, students will learn the meaning of contentment and the practice of being content. We will discuss this topic using age-appropriate illustrations and situations. Learners will: 1. Practice using contentment language. Like, "I have enough" or "I am happy with what I have." 2. Identify how different comments do or don't, reflect contentment. 3. Learn how "Content Carl" practices being content by focusing on important things like family, basic needs, and experiences. 4. Share some things they are grateful for. Plus, they will practice how to reflect that gratefulness with a super-secret mission at the end of class! This is a great class for shy learners, as all students will have many chances to share. Class Format: Ice Breaker: We get silly with "Would You Rather" Lesson: What is contentment? Practice: What are you grateful for? Challenge: How can you express your gratefulness?
Learning Goals
Learners will understand that happiness can come from focusing on what we have instead of what we don't have. They will learn how to express and practice gratitude.
