Decision making is the process of choosing between different options. It is important because the choices we make can affect our health, happiness, and relationships. In this lesson, we will learn how to make good decisions by thinking about our options and considering the consequences of our choices.
Let’s look at a scenario: Imagine you are at a party and there are two snacks available: fruit and candy. What would you choose? Discuss with your partner why you would choose one over the other. Think about how each choice affects your health and how you feel afterwards. This helps us practice making decisions based on what is best for us.
As a class, we will go through a few scenarios together. For example, if you have a choice between playing outside or watching TV, what would you choose? Let’s list the pros and cons of each option on the board. This will help us see how to make informed decisions. After discussing, each student will share their choice and reasoning with the class.
Now it’s time for you to practice on your own! In your journals, write about a decision you made recently. Describe the options you had, what you chose, and how you felt about your choice. After writing, set a small goal for yourself related to making healthy choices. For example, you might decide to eat more fruits and vegetables this week.
