Lesson Plan, Maker Assessment, & Unit of Learning
CURRICULUM AREA: Mental Health & Self Empowerment
GRADE: 7
Teacher(s): Carlo DeFazio, Joseph Villella, Kristina Preston, Vicki Glover, Warren Wong
Special Note: Mental health is an important topic that we believe should be taught to people of all ages – teachers included. Taking care of ourselves as educators is imperative to our practice. Do not be afraid to ask for help. The BCTF and many other teacher unions provide counselling services for their members. The Centre for Addiction and Mental Health Canada has many resources available such as a Mental Health 101 information page. The BC Government also has a page dedicated to Mental Health & Well-being.
