What We Did and With Whom 

For the pilot teaching, Caitlin and I met with our consultation team and shared our lesson  plan 1 with everyone.  

What We Learned 

We were given feedback from most of the group and they also filled out the evaluation  forms for us. I felt that we need to be a little more concise and to the point. It was nice to talk  about it and have others’ opinions so that we could see things a little differently. We revised our  lesson plan and added more to the introduction and to the ending. Below is some of the feedback  we received: 

Feedback 

We need to give a quick overview of what each of the lessons are going to entail, so the  participants can see the “why” and be excited to continue engaging in future lessons. They  thought we used awesome principles, but that it sometimes felt a little choppy. They also loved  that we had interactive activities and would be following up with the 10-day activity in future  lessons!

Lesson 2: Conflict Resolution

  Lesson 2: Conflict Resolution   Follow Up In the last lesson we focused on how important communication is in a relationship.   We did a couple of activities to help facilitate conversation and help you to focus on HOW you are communicating with your partner. We want you to take a second and reflect on how that second activity is going. Are you noticing any negative patterns in you and your partner’s daily interactions? These are good things to notice! If you haven’t yet started keeping a log of your interactions, we encourage you to start now. The first step to resolving communication problems is acknowledging that they are there in the first place. Next week we will do a final follow up of how the 10 days went and what the next steps are. This Week’s Lesson This lesson we will add onto the topic of communication but go a little deeper into how we can successfully resolve conflict in our relationships.   Arguments can actually be a good thing! Conflict is c...

Lesson 5: Communication Strategies

Lesson 5 - Communication Strategies Follow up:             Last week we discussed the importance of building our own self-esteem if we want to be effective communicators. We first want to follow up on your positive affirmations. Were you able to repeat 10 things you loved about yourself every day? How did it make you feel? If you haven’t already, write your feelings down in your journal. You can keep repeating positive affirmations to yourself as long as you feel you need it. You can also change up your affirmations! Find ten new things that you love about yourself, to add some variety.             You were also given the assignment to start a self-esteem journal. If you have not yet written about how you feel after following the prompts for a week, take the time to do that now. Have you felt an increase in self-esteem? Do you feel better able to accept yourself? If you have...
