Description:

Grades 5-9

Young adolescents will learn:

Develop an understanding of the importance of respectful behavior.
Become aware of the many ways in which they show both respect and disrespect toward each other.
Adopt a value for treating people respectfully.
Learn to appreciate people's differences rather than fear them.
Become interested in learning more about their own roots and those of their schoolmates.

This program emphasizes that everyone is entitled to respect regardless of appearance, race, national origin, disability, social status, etc. It attempts to sensitize kids to the feelings of others, and develop in them a value for treating people respectfully. Also, since conformity is such a powerful force in early adolescence, this show encourages kids not to reject people who are different from them, but to appreciate and embrace diversity and multiculturalism.

About the Big Changes Big Choices Series

In Big Changes, Big Choices comedian/teen counselor Michael Pritchard helps young adolescents discover that they have the power and the responsibility to make the right choices for themselves. The TV cameras follow him to middle schools in different regions of the U.S. as he thrills his young listeners with unusual humor about growing up, and engages groups of teens in highly productive problem-solving sessions about serious issues that affect their lives.

Each volume in the series is approximately 25 minutes in length. A printable teaching guide is included on each video which contains discussion questions, writing assignments, and follow-up activities that support the lesson.
