Decision-Making
Skills - Students who develop strong-decision making skills could be
less likely to make bad decisions throughout life. This guide takes the
educator through a step-by-step process for helping students come to
truthful and reasoned decisions under pressured situations. Developed
for use with students in grades 6-9, the program activities help
students consider decisions they might face this coming year. They will
learn what influences decisions, develop skills to help them make
choices, and then make some personal decisions for the year ahead.

Consequences
of Decisions - Kids know about consequences, especially short-term
ones like getting grounded or having their phone privileges taken away.
This study guide takes students in grades 6-9 through activities that
help them see beyond the immediate and focus on the future consequences
of their actions.
Download Only
Refusal
Techniques - Knowing what to do and doing it are two different
tasks. While a student's instincts may warn him or her of trouble ahead,
not knowing how to respond can make it difficult for him or her. This
study guide offers students in grades 6-9 ways to say NO in specific
situations. It helps students recognize good values and how they help
them make right decisions. In this study guide, students learn to
analyze the consequences of their actions in relation to family, peers
and the law. The activities allow them to practice applying refusal
techniques in a variety of situations.
Values
- Students are willing to talk about moral dilemmas or conflicts if they
are in a non-threatening environment. This study guide offers students
in grades 6-9 activities designed to create a secure time and place to
tackle tough issues and the decision making that accompanies them.
Students begin by discussing how they currently perceive society's core
values, how their perceptions can differ from those of their parents,
and how this can result in misunderstandings. Further activities engage
students in grade 6-9 in analyzing the role of personal values in
decision making. Most importantly, this guide addresses the potent force
of peer influence and how teens often develop two sets of personal
values — one for friends and another for all other relationships.
Conflict
Resolution - "Fight!" By grades 6 and 7, many students
have become convinced that fighting is not only an acceptable response
to conflict but that it actually provides the only way to maintain one's
self-respect. Research has shown that students who understand the
concept of conflict resolution are more likely to settle a dilemma with
methods other than fighting. This study guide helps students explore the
dynamics of conflict, factors that can lead to greater conflict, and
ways to control anger and manage conflict more effectively.
Responsibility
- Young people equate responsibility with chores likes doing homework
and cleaning their room. This study guide helps the educator take
students to the next level of understanding responsibility toward one's
community, school and peers. As students work through the activities,
they will learn how responsibility can be both an individual and group
concern. This study guide allows students in grades 6-9 to exercise the
decision-making skills they learned and culminates in the group
developing a teen guide for making right decisions throughout life.
“I
Quit Smoking Now!” is a program focused on providing guidance
counselors, general educators, young people and parents with concepts
and tools designed to help youth quit smoking. The approach and features
of this program are based on a review of existing cessation programs,
tailored in this case to meet the special needs of young people who have
begun to use tobacco and who want to quit.
