Being a teenager is both wonderful and challenging. These books will help my students navigate the difficult world of today's teenager.
My students are WONDERFUL.
But I guess all teachers say that right? I have the pleasure of teaching 85 7th graders at an inner city KIPP charter school in Atlanta, GA. My student population is 99% African American and 77% Free or Reduced lunch. They are thinkers, explorers, investigators, and above all teenagers! Many of them will be turning 13 this year. They attend a school that is preparing them to go to and through college by spending a whopping 10 hours at school daily, plus 2 hours of homework nightly. They are dynamic, challenging, bright, and humorous young people whose hard work has made our school the number one school in our district and Georgia School of Excellence. My students are not only wonderful, they are the next generation of leaders in this country and need everything we can provide to help them navigate the challenges of being a teenager in America.
My students need 85 copies of "7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens" to help navigate the wonderful and challenging life of a teenager! In an entertaining style, "7 Habits" provides a step-by-step guide to help teens improve self-image, build friendships, resist peer pressure, achieve their goals, get along with their parents, and much more. In addition, this book is stuffed with cartoons, clever ideas, great quotes, and incredible stories about real teens from all over the world. The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens will engage teenagers unlike any other book and help my students navigate all the tremendous challenges of their teenage years.
Teenagers today face more challenges than ever with the influences of reality TV, social media, and pop culture.
Help my students develop the "habits" to be successful teens and ultimately the successful adults that will be then next generation of leaders in our country!
