Answer #1

1. My Essential Question is What is the best way to help teenage girls build self esteem? My first answer will be " changing the attitude you have toward yourself as a person". Meaning if you feel your Worthless or something to that negativity , change your game strategy with the way you feel about yourself. Take the time to find things you love and enjoy about yourself. Take the time to find your strengths and make your weaknesses your strengths. 2. Say a girl thinks she's fat or ugly or any nonsense such as that. She would stop putting her self down and work on her self esteem. She could exercise such as running or dancing. Write down things she loves and dislikes about herself and work on her dislikes. Taking the time to appreciate your positives and not Oxus on what you think are the negatives . 3. The place where I find the most evidence is with my independent component "Song". The girls came in as okay dancers and after a few short weeks , working with them and not giving up on them helped them grow into better dancers. You see when a girl can dance shes not afraid to be herself on the dance floor, when your dancing you put your own personality into it to make it you. As well as learning how to dance, I teach the girls to say positive things, instead of saying " I can't, I suck, it's hard, I'm ugly" any nonsense like that I give them ways to positivity , taking those words out of their vocabulary. Having a positive role model , helps a girl grow better. When you see someone with talent or a good self esteem , you look foward to working with that person. Every little thing counts.

Service Learning

For my first few hours I started off by talking to my Service learning advisor Debbie Head about my senior project and the things I need to accomplish . She gave me resources such as our girl scout acivity book , showing me what sort of things I can do with the girls in my troop. I also did my second Interview with her, learning new stuff about her and her profession as well as what she knows about girls and their self esteem.
