IM.POSSIBLE ELEMENTARY AND MIDDLE SCHOOL ASSEMBLY
A FUN, HIGH ENERGY, AND INTERACTIVE PRESENTATION TEACHING STUDENTS TO BUILD RESILIENCE
In his fun and interactive school presentation titled “IM.POSSIBLE,” youth speaker Eddie Cortes will help students realize that they are not defined by their limitations but by their resilience. He uses humor and thought-provoking stories to show elementary and middle school students that they are braver than they believe, stronger than they seem, and smarter than they think.
THE PROBLEM
- 65% of students struggle with self-worth
- a negative self-view impacts academic results, social, emotional, and mental health
- students with low self-esteem engage in cutting, bullying, smoking, and drinking
Students with a positive self-worth are more resilient, more likely to overcome failure, and achieve better academic results. Resilient students chase their dreams.
LEARNING OUTCOMES (with SEL competencies in mind):
- Fail forward: Failure + Failure + Failure = Success
- Self-worth: Personal potential is greater than personal limitations
- Resilience advances through adversity
LET’S HELP YOUR STUDENTS LEARN TO BUILD RESILIENCE
