- Teaching Guide: The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens
The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens, written by Sean Covey, is a great teaching resource for high school students. This books serves as the text for a senior elective course, however it certainly can and should be introduced to students at an earlier age.
The habits can help students achieve academic, athletic and personal goals.
Over the years, I have developed some lessons to support the book. Simply click on the Habit to view activities. This is a work in progress, so please be patient and check back regularly.
Please check out our resource page for Psychology teachers and other teachers who use this book.
