"The Big Life Journal", is an illustrated journal broken into 10 chapters. It can be purchased in most bookstores and on Amazon.com. Each chapter of the journal has a lesson that is written as a fun, inspirational story. The chapters follow up each lesson with activity pages. This journal was created to assist children with improving their confidence, teach them about persistence, and how to have a growth mindset. During this course, your learner will work independently and also in a small group setting to move through one chapter each week. Students will listen to a short introduction of each chapter and then break off into groups to work through the activities. Learners will then come back together to share their thoughts with the whole group. Each student will be given the opportunity to share or pass during the discussion time. All students are expected to be good listeners, take turns, and be respectful. Weeks 1-2: We will cover chapters 1 & 2.
