Social Perspectives for Grade 8 supports students’ commitment to being positive role models in their schools and communities. Eighth graders demonstrate their self-efficacy and interpersonal skills in fun, interactive activities, games, and role-play so they can continue making healthy choices and building positive, healthy friendships with others.

Social Perspectives’ interactive learning design immerses the students in the learning to build their capacity to resolve conflict peacefully, avoid participating in unhealthy activities that have negative consequences, and build positive, healthy relationships with pro-social peers.

In “Cover Story,” students learn healthy approaches to resolving a conflict in order to negotiate which story makes the cover for their school newspaper. Once they share their story idea and offer supporting arguments to the editorial team, they work together to come up with a resolution. Students offer constructive “kicking tips” to Dave, a soccer star, that he can share with his friend, Kara, without offending her. The constructive criticism Dave offers Kara helps her improve her soccer game before she tries out for the team. In “Warning Message,” students distinguish healthy qualities from unhealthy ones and determine how to spot signs of abuse in the context of dating relationships.

Home Workouts and cross-curricular activities follow each lesson so students can practice and apply the concepts developed in each lesson at home and with their peers.
