Formative assessments

Pre assessments

A checklist/self reflection where students mark on a scale from 1-10 their feelings on certian topics concerning themselves

generalization

Children only need to feel accepted by their peers to have a healthy sense of self

"the quality of cargiver and peers influences their belief that they are worthy of love" (457)

In reality acceptance alone isn't enough. Students make a lot of friends in school but are so focused on being liked and perceived in a positive light that they don't focus on finding quality relationships

Overgeneralization

Eriksons stages of development

Industry v. Inferiority

It is an ability that contributes to emotional health throughout life during both childhood and adulthood. Failing to master these critical tasks, however, can result in social and emotional struggles that last a lifetime. (verywellmind)

identity v role confusion

Self-confidence: Those who are able to develop a strong sense of identity are better able to have self-confidence, or a sense of trust in their abilities, qualities, and judgements.
Sense of independence: Those who receive proper encouragement and reinforcement through personal exploration will emerge from this stage with a strong sense of self and a feeling of independence and control. Those who remain unsure of their beliefs and desires will remain insecure and confused about themselves and the future (verywellmind)

Positive interdependence

Social acceptance through group work

individuals can attain their goals if others in their group also reach their goals
students are more likely to promote one another’s success, instead of competing with or ignoring one another.

Homophily

Goes towards people that you think will alight with your beliefs or is like you over people you think would test that.

By going against that it can help strengthen and change your original beliefs or ideas by being exposed to a diverse group of people and ideas

"culures also influence how much chuldren think about peoples thoughts and feelings"(474)

Gender

"much of the peer pressure to act appropriately for ones gender come from within rather than from others. The tendency for children and adolescents to conform to their own ideas about appropriate behaviors" (464)

SEL programs or traditional programs scripts are what every students need to understand the important of peer acceptance

This idea isnt always helpful the idea of getting kids to work together and understanding their own worth isnt done of a script teachers need to have the freedom to cater to their studetns as each person, classroom and grade are different
