After running my Learning to Love Myself class for girls, I realized that there was a need for guided, structured writing, driven by literacy. This class uses the book 365 Days Of Wonder, Mr. Brown's Book of Precepts, by RJ Palacio to move girls forward in a growth-minded thinking model. Each class will be driven by a series of quotes, images and writing exercises, as well as a peer discussion and active listening exercises. Girls will uncover themes like: How to be a good friend... How to take care of myself... How to change a negative image... How to be open minded... How to ask for help.... How to listen before responding... Students will also complete an action assignment each week, where they will apply skills and reflection from the previous class. The Three Domains: Self Awareness, Goal Setting, and Problem Solving will also be connected to the curriculum. Students who have taken other classes with me will recognize these domains. Students will conclude the class with a vision board, bridging new learning, self discovery and goal setting.

The book is helpful in referencing quotes, I will encourage girls to read along each day. The
