Mini Lesson
Everyone is good at something — and that "something" is called a strength. Knowing your strengths helps you feel confident and know how you can help others!
What is a strength?
- A strength is something you do well or a positive quality you have.
- Example: being kind, listening carefully, staying calm, finishing tasks.
- Strengths can be skills, habits, or parts of your personality.
What does "still growing" mean?
- Some things are not yet easy — these are your growing areas.
- Example: having patience, staying focused, speaking up.
- Growing areas are NOT weaknesses — they are things you are working on!
Why does it matter?
- Knowing your strengths helps you use them to help others.
- Knowing your growing areas helps you make a plan to improve.
Ask yourself: "What is one thing I am really good at? What is one thing I am still learning to do better?"
