BENEFITING STUDENTS
Each week students will learn self-esteem skills they can use at home and school to help them establish and maintain healthy self-esteem. In addition, they will improve communication skills and learn how to practice goal setting.
At a minimum, being in this counseling group allows students to identify and share their feelings, develop self-esteem through participation, and practice empathy while hearing others’ experiences.
SAVING TIME
With easy to implement outlines and activities, this group curriculum is very low-prep. Simply print out each session before students arrive and keep them in a file folder. For tips on how to organize your small groups, check out this blog post I wrote. The self-assessments are a great way to get students to self-reflect on their progress and you can then share this information with teachers, parents, or in your program report.
Also make sure to track your data and compile it in an end of the year report. Here is an outline I created to make it easy!
Who is this Group Designed For?
Self-esteem MVP’s is designed for small groups of students grades 2-5. It can also be modified to work for other grades and individual lessons.
