Lesson Plan

Seeing Problems as Opportunities

When students view decisions as opportunities, rather than as problems to solve, they are better able to exercise agency over the decisions in their lives, and can tackle decisions proactively, rather than reactively. This lesson introduces young people to the idea that sometimes a decision may hold possibilities that they hadn’t considered.

Objectives

  • Students will identify big and small decisions they make in their lives in and out of school and how those decisions
    make them feel.
  • Students will identify how a problem may really be an opportunity in disguise.
