WeCollab: Orientation session for Parents to understand the Life Skills Programme for children

Largely these skills help us understand ourselves better and function our day-to-day lives from that understanding. 

Although the current academic studies enhance the intellectual aspects of our being, it doesn’t seem to enhance the other aspects like understanding the self and the relationship of the self with the external world.

This, imbalances the holistic development of the child and they seem to be losing the skills to understand their natural self.

 

These skills could be learned just like study skills our children receive from schools.

We, at WeCollab, are teaming with two professional counsellors who are also educators to offer a workshop for children to learn these life skills to empower themselves.

The workshop is designed in such a way three important skills are identified and each skill is given in a module form that would be dealt in various sessions.

 

Module 1

‘Self’ as a concept

Intra-personal relationship

In this module, children are helped to understand themselves and their personal attributes that define who they are.

Module 2

Understanding Emotions

Recognition of emotion expression and Adaptive skill

In this module, children understand their emotional quotient and develop the ability to respond appropriately.

Module 3

Self - Esteem

Identify their strengths and limitations.

In this module, children are given an overall understanding of the need and the impact of self-esteem in their lives.

 

We trust that these skills will help your child/children to get in touch with their inner selves and empower them to identify their own strengths & limitations and respond appropriately.
