I co-wrote and team taught these lessons several years ago with a 6th grade teacher. Our school could not afford to purchase the 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens for all 90 of our 6th graders so I turned each chapter into a Powerpoint and Lesson. Below you will find Powerpoints/Handouts (be sure to read the comments sections for notes). Thea teacher and I presented at the annual AzSCA Conference on this topic (along with 3rd grade teacher). A copy of our presentation is also attached a the bottom. UPDATE - I have received many comments about these lessons over the years! I'm so happy that people are finding these resources useful. I created these, along with a 6th grade teacher, 5 years ago when I worked in a different position. The Chapter 1 activity that isn't working is saved in an old Google Drive that I no longer have access to. There is a page in Chapter 1 that that says the "10 worst quotes of all time". I typed them up, cut them up and handed them out to students to read aloud. The other comment I get is about the video clips. Those are from an old MTV show that is no longer on the air. "If you only knew me". I'd suggest looking for videos on Empathy or seeing another person's perspective to compliment that lesson. I no longer update this website but wanted to THANK YOU for visiting. Your comments and outreach have kept me from deleting it. I'm glad it is still a useful tool.

Thank you for making this available to others! I am a middle school Leadership advisor and this will be perfect to use with my students. The chapter 1 activity does not work- could you please send/share it with me? Is the list of Top 10 All Time Stupid Quotes? I didn't see those.

These are wonderful. We're revising our advisory lessons this year and your presentations were perfect for the section we revised about the 7 habits. I modified a few things to make them feel more like high school, but you saved me literally hours of work!!

I can see your devotion to your students as a counselor. I am using your materials for work with those in prisons. Please send lesson 1 and any information that will help. Thank you for your generous sharing.
