Friday Freebies (Leadership)

Many schools have implemented The Leader in Me and the 7 Habits of Healthy Kids and I have heard wonderful things!  Today I am connecting you to free resources that I have found to supplement this program.  If you are not using the Leader in Me program you can still use these resources to teach leadership skills.  My school is not using the program yet and I have used several of these freebies with my students.  If you want to know more about The Leader in Me you can go to their website.  You can also check out the  Leader In Me Sampler.

Exploringschoolcounseling.blogspot.com shares some great team building activities HERE

Theschoolcounselorkind.wordpress.com did a great Compliments Web activity that you can find HERE.

Alligators is one of my favorite teamwork activities.  You can find directions HERE.

This is another one that I love.  I do the spaghetti and marshmallows challenge every year with my 5th grade students and they have a blast!    

I also do this activity every year.  You use straws and tape to create a boat and then see how many pennies your boat can hold before it sinks.  Students have so much fun with this one!

The Human Knot is another great teamwork challenge.  You don't need any supplies and I have done this activity with students as young as 2nd grade all the way through high school.  

Great Items that are NOT FREE!

Books about Teamwork:

If you don't have these books I would highly recommend them.  I used them throughout my internship before I had money to spend on counseling supplies and they were a life saver!
