Teacher Materials
Teacher's Guide
The 285-page guide contains 15 45-minute lesson plans and all the necessary tools needed to effectively implement this program. Each of the seven units includes an introduction, a materials task list to prepare both the instructor and the classroom, procedures for conducting the lessons, enrichment/homework activities, and instructor follow-up and evaluation.
Inspirational Posters
An inspirational wall poster is included for each of the seven units that defines the theme of the topic being covered. This allows students to focus on important words, their meanings, and how they relate to their lives.
Billboards (Reusable, Erasable White Boards)
Many of the classroom activities revolve around communication and sharing. Erasable white boards are passed out to the students, who are encouraged to use them to write their responses to questions. Students hold up their boards so the teacher can consolidate the class responses without singling out a particular student.
Revving Up Questionnaires and Answer Sheets
The program begins with each student taking a confidential assessment (Revving Up) consisting of 108 questions related to academic confidence and stress; motivation to attend school; connections with family, teachers, and peers; health and wellbeing; and the importance of school and college.
Moving On Questionnaires and Answer Sheets
The Moving On questionnaire is given to students after they complete the Success Highways curriculum. This data is then compared with the Revving Up data, and used to generate a report on the growth and development that have occurred as a result of Success Highways.
