SEL Conversation Bundle - Abraham Lincoln on Self-Determination

Students are fed the consistent message that they can achieve anything in life if only they just work hard at it. They are in control of their future. But students are also aware of the fact that much of their future is out of their control and that no matter how hard they try, they will never achieve certain things. These two forces-- the internal force of their own desires and the external force of the world acting upon them-- conspire to shape their life experiences.

The theme of this conversation is Self-Determination.

The CASEL competency associated with this conversation is Self Management.

Welcome to UnforgettableConversations with TeachDifferent! Our conversation bundles are a great way to create a safe space for students to express their thoughts and opinions.
