Students began this project by thinking and talking about the needs of their community and how these needs are met. They then learned about the needs people have in their lives of belonging, fun, power and freedom (Glasser’s internal needs). They talked about how they meet these needs in their lives in positive ways, and created PowerPoint presentations to share with the class.
I am able to identify different groups that I belong to; I am able to represent aspects of my cultural contexts (such as family, communities, school, peer groups) through words and/or images. I can describe what is important to me. I can describe and demonstrate pride in my positive qualities, characteristics and/or skills; I can explain how I am able to use these to contribute to my home and/or community.
