MY CHARACTER JOURNAL
…What one’s mind creates one’s character can control…We designed the Character Journal to empower youth with the ability to reflect, become self-aware, mindful and positive about their experiences in life.
At the core of My Character Journal is the understanding that one of the greatest possessions in life is neither a grade, a trophy or status; but the awareness that true fulfilment in one’s life comes from being a decent human being and an authentic version of one’s self.
My Character Journal is a beautiful educational resource and the perfect complement for schools looking to build positive wellbeing and culture. The journal is designed to adapt to any pastoral care initiative and encourages student ownership. It is easy to follow and will become self-regulatory after just a few guided sessions. There is a fabulous teachers manual which highlights how students can be active facilitators of the program, allowing each student a chance to develop leadership skills and a sense of service learning with their peers. Created by eager youth, talented educators and caring mental health professionals for the youth of today.
The 2020 My Character Journal can be enjoyed over multiple year levels at the same time.
For example we recommend two approaches for both primary and middle school.
Primary – Years 5 and 6
Middle School – Years 7, 8 and 9
The benefits of multiple year levels working on My Character Journal at the same time include:
- Common Language Across Cohorts
- Collaborative Positive Education Across Year Levels
- Consistent Call To Action To More Students
As a Visible Wellbeing School, Iona College has introduced the ‘My Character Journal’ to assist Primary students in better understanding their character strengths. Each stimulus provides a starting point for students and teachers to generate meaningful discussions around any given strength, which in turn, creates opportunities for new understandings and personal growth. I would thoroughly recommend this resource to support any existing Wellbeing program.
