Goal

The goal of Hurricane Habits is to introduce, define, implement, and collaborate with students on the 7 Habits of Highly Effective People! Manatee Middle's goal is to develop leadership qualities in our students in order to empower them through education.  

What will be done with my students

As a School Counselor I will be creating a series called, "Hurricane Habits". Within this series I will be introducing each Habit, explaining what this habit means, why it is important, and how students can begin to implement this habit. I would like to begin this implementation with some extrinsic motivation in order to inspire intrinsic motivation. Each week I will present on the news about a new habit. These news segments will be in my Hurricane Habits series, and will include student presentations! As teachers see students implementing the 7 habits in their classroom, in the cafeteria, and afterschool, they can give students a ticket, which will allow them to come see me, Ms. Brewer, for a fun prize. The prizes I would like to purchase will be fun planners, healthy snacks, fidget toys, and honor badge tags for when they have mastered each habit! 

Benefits to my students

The 7 habits is an extensive program, but truly teaches students to be leaders of their own destiny. It teaches students the foundations of living each day with a purpose. This program will be a huge benefit to my students. This classroom (school) grant will help incentivize students in the beginning of implementation, with a further goal of developing intrinsic motivation.  

Budget Narrative

These are estimates of what I will be buying and purchasing.
