1. For the next two weeks you are to keep a journal in which you document when you are feeling confident and when you are not. Think about where you are? Who is with you? Consider as many situations as possible.
Consider the following situation:
2. How do you think the girl feels? Do you think her level of self worth and self esteem are high? Do you think she has confident in the lesson being taught in the classroom prior to receiving that grade? Could her level of self esteem have been low to begin with? What factors could have contributed to the above situation? Think about it!
Use the situation above to help you create a fun brochure that could help everyone in the community build their self-esteeem.
3. Now using the following sites, identify ways to help build our self-confidence and self-esteem. Gader evidence and identify the causes of low self-esteem.

4. For people with good basic self-esteem, normal “ups and downs” may lead to temporary fluctuations in how they feel about themselves, but only to a limited extent. In contrast, for people with poor basic self-esteem, these “ups and downs” may make all the difference in the world. What are your “ups and downs”? Think about it!
5. Write an essay in which you discuss your confidence level and sense of self worth by describing specific events, situations, and social situations in which you and your level of self-esteem have been effected.
6. As a class, we will brainstorm and complete the attached worksheet to help us build our self-esteem.
