It is incredibly rewarding to watch my students learn to self-monitor and grow into mature, kind, patient, and understanding young adults right before my eyes. I hope you have the same success with your students!

At the beginning of each class or at the start of the day, pull out a quote at random and read it to the class. Leave “I Liked the Quote” slips next to your Inspiration Jar (the container you house the quotes in). When a student feels moved by a quote, they can write down the quote to keep for when they need a little inspiration.

How does media effect one's self esteem?

This package contains 6 lessons and a culminating task that will address this topic.

The package is meant to be taught over at least five lessons. With discussion, each page should easily fill a 45- to 60-minute lesson block.

Lessons include:

- definitions and discussion

- Influence of the Media

- self esteem and music videos

- what happens when a "beauty" company helps people see their beauty?

- evolution of an advertisement (print media/photoshopping)

- overcoming stereotypes and negative comments

- Think about how awesome you are

- Hand of friendship (culminating task)

There is currently no final assessment piece included in this package.

Each lesson, except the last, should be started with a gratitude journal page. The idea behind this it to help students see that they have a lot to be grateful for, regardless of what the media may portray to them. The journal pages shouldn’t take anymore than 5 minutes, max. For photo copying purposes, the journal page is placed before the worksheet, for any given lesson.
