I just purchased and have rated a few A's only after skimming pages. I want to expose my at-risk, urban student population to the 7 Habits and it's great to be able to pay a few dollars to implement an existing "wheel" instead spending so much time recreating one.

Great packet! I really liked the creative tasks/assignments and that each one included a rubric. SO helpful! One suggestion might be to include chapter numbers in addition to page numbers.

DewittRobinson re: Teaching the 7 Habits - Modifiable
Will this lesson format work well with block scheduling?
December 18, 2012
Jessica Hellman (TpT Seller)
I would say you shouldn't have any problem using this plan with block scheduling. You may have to use more than one lesson for each day, but it should be relatively easy to adjust. Please let me know how it works out!
Have a great holiday!

Mj Cheatham (TpT Seller) re: Holes Lesson Plans
Can you please give me an idea about what kinds of activities and various graphic organizers you've created for this unit? I am really looking for something that focuses less on vocabulary and only comprehension questions. I am looking for something with activities that engage higher-order thinking and the bigger picture stuff (like character building, etc.) I like the one preview I see about bullies v. mentors. What other kinds of activities does this unit have? Thank so you much.

Jessica Hellman (TpT Seller)
Hi Melissa, I'm so sorry about the delay in my response! It's been a busy couple of weeks! Please let me know if you found what you are looking for, or if I can give you some information. If you are interested, please email me at jlhellman@hotmail.com, and I will send you some more information.
Thanks for your patience!

Scipi (TpT Seller) re: Setting up the 7 Habits
I saw your store on the home page of Teachers Pay Teachers; so, I thought I would look at your freebie. I left you a rating. Well done!
I have a couple of suggestions that might help you to better market this product. Add some clipart to add color. Also, create a cover page which can then be used as an attractive thumbnail to entice buyers. You might also add a second page which is a directions or suggestions page. List several ways you use this product. Never assume that a buyer knows how, why, or when to use your product. Use the footer to put the copyright symbol, your name and date of creation on EVERY page. Items, especially free ones, have been "stolen" from TPT and posted on other sites to be sold. You have to protect all of your creations. Also include the page numbers.
Even though you don't teach math, I’d appreciate your input on my freebie listed below. I like to get input from a variety of teachers.

Good luck as you sell on TPT!

Hi, Jessica! New question: In Lesson 6 on pg. 20 of the teaching guide, it references the "Circles of Control" worksheet. Can you please tell me where to locate that one? Thanks so much!
January 15, 2012
Jessica Hellman (TpT Seller)
You can find good examples in the workbook, but if you send an email to jlhellman@hotmail.com, I'll send you the word version I have.

Adana Gardner (TpT Seller) re: Teaching the 7 Habits
Hello! I've been preparing to implement your awesome program, & I have a couple of questions. 1) In Lesson 16, what is the Dove video? 2) In Lesson 10, what is "The Great Discovery"? I apologize if the answers are right in front of my face. I promise I re-read the lessons many times before asking. :) Many thanks for your help!
January 13, 2012
Jessica Hellman (TpT Seller)
Sorry about that! I thought the Dove video link was in the text, but you're right - it's not! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iYhCn0jf46U
Also, the Great Discovery is a section in the student workbook. It starts on page 74 of the workbook. Please let me know if you need any more information! Enjoy!

Yes! That answers my question. I was looking at another workbook. Thank you for your prompt reply.

acmatamo re: Teaching the 7 Habits
The author of this lesson mentions on page 8 to use the "workbook" to complete the Paradigm self assessment. However, I looked into the 7 Habits workbook, and those are pages having to do with another lesson. What "workbook" is Ms. Hellman referring to?
November 28, 2011
Jessica Hellman (TpT Seller)
There is a personal workbook that goes along with the book. You can find it on amazon at http://www.amazon.com/Habits-Highly-Effective-Personal-Workbook/dp/0743250982/ref=sr_1_2?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1322501986&sr=1-2. Please let me know if that doesn't answer your question!
Thank you,

What greater reward is there, than a student's excitement about literature? Especially with my students with reading disabilities... watching them run into my classroom to return to their reading adventures... does it get any better?
