Attending to the Connection

Elicit non-trivial dialogue from students. Guide students to reflection and analysis of the experience. Encourage students to share their perceptions and beliefs. Summarize and review similarities and differences.


Weekend choice diaries; group charts synthesizing choices.

Objective: To formulate a concept of how choices are made and how we rank our values.

Activity: For one weekend, students will keep a diary of choices they make. For the next class, they must prioritize their choices in terms of importance, identifying which actions really were choices. In class, again in groups, they will share their choices and create a group composite chart, identifying hardest choices, the function of guilt in choices, the influence of our values in the choices we make, and what was lost and gained in each choice. Teacher leads class discussion, hopefully helping students recognize that choices are usually "gray" and within each person is that part of the self which determines who and what we are.

Assessment: Student participation and effort; contribution to the group.
