SELF ESTEEM

Curated and Reviewed by Lesson Planet

Middle schoolers explore different ways to feel good about themselves. They analyze a quote from Samson Raphael Hirsch and then participate in silent sitting. In addition, they experience story telling after seeing the example the solitary song by Joh Vesty. In the end they draw and decorate a t-shit and write on it the things they like most about themselves.
