Self-Identity and Personal Values Project for the Upper Elementary Classroom

Help your students develop their self-identity and explore their values with this interdisciplinary My Personal Values Project! This print-and-go social-emotional learning project gives students the opportunity to get to know themselves and learn what they value in life. A great way for students to reflect on themselves and for rich classroom discussions on classroom values as well.

A great no-prep SEL project to do any time of the year, in Health Education and/or in ELA class, but ideal to use during the back-to-school period!

What’s included in the project:

• A write-up on exactly how to use each page of the project, including ideas and tips to deepen the learning
• A pre-teaching activity where students discover what values matter the most to them
• An optional pre-teaching activity students can take home to explore their family values with a parent or guardian to deepen the thinking and learning
• A handout for your students with step-by-step instructions for the “My Values” project
• An easy-to-use evaluation grid for the project
• A blank sheet for students to represent their values in an image
• A copy for students to write about their values and why they are important to them
• A final copy sheet
