The lesson “Resiliency” teaches children about managing emotions for healthy and responsible life choices, as well as for the development of Godly character. Each child will learn to define the word, ‘resilient,’ and explain why it is important to have resiliency. Children will list at least two positive events in their lives that are occurring despite any negative events, and how to identify positive experiences when life is challenging. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 6-8 years, and is the 14th lesson in the 2nd Year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Emotional Development” unit.
