Skills 4 Success (Period 4) Assignments

Stress Project (MP4)

 

Students will create a poster describing at least 10 healthy ways 7th graders can deal with stress. The poster must include pictures and captions explaining why these methods are useful when it comes to relieving stress.

The Vision Board Project 

 

This project is an exercise in visualization where students will create a board that inspires them. They may use a variety of quotes, pictures and other decorations to create a board that elicits a certain positive feeling from them. The majority of the work will be done in class with SOME (optional) work that can be done at home. 

Students will be working on a self-portrait using typography. I will not be in class on Thursday 3/10, but the students will be working on the project with the substitute.

 

Steps:

1. Select a picture of yourself. (bring to class 3/9)

2. Use the tracing paper provided in class trace the outline of your face onto the paper.

3. Transfer the outline over to a regular piece of paper.

4. Go over the outline with marker.

5. Using the "50 Nice Things" we completed in class fill in the white space with quotes, memories, compliments and other positive affirmations. (HINT: Use different sizes, styles, and colors of font to make your project pop).
