Providing each of my students with their own copy of the book, The 7 Habits of Happy Kids (purchasing 18) will allow for personalization of their learning. If they each have their own book they will be able to make side notes and underline words meaningful to them. They will also be able to keep the book and refer back to it. I will use this book and the shorter storybooks (purchasing 15) to develop and encourage positive leadership skills and growth mindsets within my students. Stories assist students in relating to the concepts being taught. Some of the story titles are as follows: What Would Danny Do, Seeds and Trees: A children's book about the power of words, My Actions Matter: A Book on Life Values, My Strong Mind: A Story About Developing Mental Strength. Through our small and whole group discussions, students will be able to identify the seven habits and will practice each of the habits in various ways (role-play, art projects, teacher created scenarios, etc.). This practice will assist them to deeply ingrain the habits so that they will successfully implement them in their daily lives. The book is composed of 7 short stories with a colorful crew of characters that students can relate with. The stories teach the reader about each of the 7 habits by using nonfiction characters. The 7 Habits are: Habit 1: Be Proactive Habit 2: Begin with the End in Mind Habit 3: Put First Things First Habit 4: Think Win-Win Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to be Understood Habit 6: Synergize Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw Every child has a leader within them and with the right supports, I believe the students will learn how to use the skills and gain the knowledge to be successful.
