Essential Proteen: A Life Skills Program for Helping Teens Succeed: Student Journal

For grades 9-12, the Essential Proteen program:

• Teaches the importance of understanding and applying the concepts of Goals, Motivation, Opportunity & Decision-Making, Knowing Yourself, and Managing & Facilitating Change.
• Develops the skills of students who are already self-aware and motivated, and for increasing knowledge and skills in students who are challenged in these areas.
• Provides students with fundamental tools to navigate and plan for their personal, academic and professional lives.
• Teaches students to learn to become better decision-makers, have ownership of their choices, and eventually feel confident and secure as they mature into adulthood.

The Student Journal is an integral part of the program and a copy should be provided for each participant. It includes skill lessons, fill-in-the-blank exercises, key word definitions, discussion questions, and journal pages for personal reflection.
