Self Esteem Wellbeing Learning Mentor Resource

Self Esteem Workbook Designed for high school children, this independent self esteem workbook helps students focus on their positive attributes, reflect on achievements and look optimistically towards the future. Engaging and interesting, the workbook has a range of activity pages to make wellbeing fun. I have used this resource as a learning mentor for vulnerable children and it has worked well. It feels like a mini project and at the end of the workbook they have a piece of work that they are both proud of and refer back to when they are feeling down or experiencing low self esteem. Pages included: Picture first page About me blurb What makes me unique Bucket list Share praise Compliment yourself Mindful coloring Creating a ‘you’ potion Looking to the future Wellbeing ladder Positivity word search Flip the thought There are 12 activity pages. The document is set up so there are two pages per A4 piece of paper (6 A4 pages in total). The pages do not have to be in any particular order accept for the front and back page (picture and blurb pages) which means printing and constructing the booklet is easy. The booklet is saved in editable PowerPoint form so can be altered to suit your student if needs be. There will be some American spellings in this resource Thanks! Science House
