Making Positive Decisions

Students don't typically get positive praise for every good decision they make. When they take a step back and reflect on their good decisions, it will reinforce them to continue their behaviors. Additionally, having students share with the class will allow others to look at what their peers are doing each day. The goal of this is to support a positive decision making environment.

In this activity, students will make a five cell storyboard all about positive decisions. The first two cells should depict things they have done the day before. The middle cell should show what they will do or have done today. Finally, the last two cells should show what they should decide tomorrow. This will help them paint a positive picture of themselves and mimic goal setting for the future.
