FES Peer Helpers read "Bored! Bored! Bored!" in Sean Covey's The 7 Habits of Happy Kids.
We discovered that Sammy Squirrel didn't need to wait for other people to tell him something he could do for fun. Being Proactive means we take initiative; are responsible; do the right thing without being asked; choose our actions, attitudes, and moods; and don't blame others for our wrong actions.
The next time we met, I had an activity for them to complete. I asked them each to write one thing they can control and one thing they can't control on sticky notes and place them in the proper place on our graph. We discussed each sticky note and had some interesting discoveries!
