Lesson Planet Curated

Five lessons comprise the Overcoming Obstacles Middle School Curriculum: Looking to the Future Module. Through a series of activities, scholars learn that change is inevitable and that accepting change with a positive attitude is key to success. They also learn how to resist peer pressure, the importance of accepting and getting along with others, and the importance of having and following rules. The final lesson has participants draft a letter about what they have learned so far and how they have changed due to the lessons in the course.
