Optimistic Thinking Skills
For students in years 7-8
This program mainly focusses on developing thinking skills. Identifying and talking about feelings is reviewed in the first module, and the other modules establish the connection between thoughts and feelings and the students learn how to tune into their self-talk, how to evaluate and challenge self-talk, so that they can be positive and optimistic.
The program also introduces practical skills such as responding under pressure and learning how to decatastrophise negative and unhelpful thoughts.
