Helping Students Build Self Respect



If you have students who have difficulty in recognizing the good in themselves, the worksheet below might be just what you need! 




This worksheet is, quite simply, a list of 58 positive traits to use during individual, small group, or large group counseling sessions. 

Try getting creative with this one...have students make a collage, art piece, poem, or anything else you, or your students, can think of.  You can also simply encourage your students to circle their own positive traits to begin building self-esteem. 

Ask the students to share a story about some times they have displayed these traits; or, you can just let them take the list home to keep as a reminder of their own positive qualities.
