Today your Resiliency Papers are due. Attach your completed purple paper and turn into the basket.
We discuss Communication today. We touch on ways that we communicate and different communication styles. We watch a 2 minute video on communication from Dr. Paul Furey. We learn how to communicate with I statements and watch an episode of Middle Ground which helps to demonstrate open and honest communication between people who disagree. Who do you disagree with sometimes? How have you handled it? How might you handle it better next time?

We discussed what pain can look like for students at Lone Peak and what are some coping strategies that we can use. We worked on the paper for a little while. We watched a video about Kevin Hines and his non-fatal suicide attempt.
We finished MacFarland USA. Think about the different characters in the movie. Try to see things from their perspective: Coach White, his wife, Julie, Jamie, the different players, their families. What were their individual struggles, accomplishments, coping strategies? Who was part of their support team? Did they always handle everything perfectly? Did they look back at their decisions and evaluate them so that they could make better ones in the future? Be thinking about your paper on Resiliency. This will be worth 200 points and will be due on January 31, 2020

You began thinking about some short and long term goals in Social, Mental and Physical Health and wrote down some thoughts. We discussed the steps to decision making. Your Collage is due Next Wednesday. We also watched a short clip from Coach Carter that includes this quote . "Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure.
It is our light , not our darkness, that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented and fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of god. Your playing small doesn't serve the world. There's nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We were born to make and manifest the glory of god that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others." Steps to Decision Making What is the Decision? What are your options? What are the possible outcomes? What are your values? Make a decision using your values. Evaluate your decision Today I give an overall introduction to Health this semester. I hand out disclosure documents and ask you to have your parents sign them and turn them in next time.
