Lesson 6: No One Grows Alone

2. Objectives
Students will determine what supports are in their lives that are positive and what leadership skills they need to become activists and leaders that will help end social isolation.
Students will create personal action steps to help end social isolation.

3. Introduction
As activists working to end social isolation, it is essential for us to reflect on who and what supports us. What gives us the courage to be activists that stand up against social isolation? 
Today we are going to be reflecting on what gives us that courage and the power to end social isolation!

4. Reflection: What can I do to help end social isolation?
Drawing Instructions:
Think about the people, places, and things that give you positivity and strength; the things that ground you. These things should go in the roots. Try to come up with at least 5-8 ideas.
Think about the leadership skills you will need to end social isolation in your school. For example, you might need courage. Try to come up with at least 4-5 characteristics.
Think about what you can personally do at your school to help end social isolation; what actions can you take? This is the most important step and you should write actions.
Be ready to share your artwork out to your group!
