Step #1: Focus
What am I paying attention to?
We begin with a game called “Remember The Color,” designed to show students the importance of focusing on what matters.
Students discover that the first step in making emotionally intelligent decisions is learning to focus on what matters—in and out of school.
Step #2: Self-Talk
What does it mean to me?
Students explore the second step of making emotionally intelligent decisions: understanding the inner conversations they have about what they're focusing on.
Step #3: Emotions
How is it making me feel?
Students will learn how their self-talk influences their emotions—and how understanding those emotions can help them make emotionally intelligent decisions.

Students will have the opportunity to ask questions, share thoughts, and connect real-life situations to the roadmap. I will guide the conversation by tying their questions back to focus, self-talk, and emotions.

5-Day Accountability Challenge
The 5-Day Accountability Partner Challenge gives students a simple way to put the ideas from the Anatoliah workshop into action — together.
How it works?
Students choose an Accountability Partner (a fellow student) and commit to encouraging them to make positive choices throughout the school week.
They will each receive a 4x6 card with four simple questions they must ask each other on a daily basis for 5 consecutive days.
Once they complete the 5-day challenge, they can choose a different accountability partner for the following week or keep the same partner.
"I just wanted to say thank you again for our great sessions. I look forward to future endeavors!"
