How is our life with charcater strenghts:

Having character strenghts in my life make´s it better in better ways.

  • Having Self-control helps me when i am having a fight with someone, it makes the fight end quickly.
  • Social intelligence make´s me have a good relationship with people.
  • Curiosity makes me know new things everyday.
  • Grit helps me in my classes.
  • Zest make´s me be a better person.
This is how character strenghts improve my life!

A problem in wich we didn´t use character strenghts:

One day my mom started getting angry with me beacuse of nothing, i replied to her that she shouldn´t be mad at me for no reason. 
We started fighting and she was like:


At the end she grounded me.
I realized that if I had used self-control the thinghs would have gone differently.

Fun Fact about Miss Violeta

Ballet buddies

A fun fact about Miss Violeta is that she used to go to dance classes of ballet with     Miss Ruth.
TTYL.

Character Strengths of Miss Violeta

What we think...

Some character strengths we think Mis Violeta has are optimism, zest and social intelligence. Because some times when the classroom is a mess she is always in a good mood, when she could be just mad, and she also always tries to make us understand all the concepts that she teach us.

What she thinks...

Some character strengths she think she has are optimism, zest and self-control and she said she needed to work on her grit. A situation in which she thinks she has self-control is when she controls herself by to not be so desperate when the students are a mess.

A song with Character Strengths!

VIVA LA VIDA:

This is an amazing song by Coldplay. It shows character strengths like: Gratitude and Social-Intelligence.
The song talks about something good that turned bad.
In some parts of the song the singer finds out that he has to have gratitude.
And in other parts he finds out that social-intelligence is what he needs.

We love this song!


A movie with Character Strengths!

The Help:

This movie is great. It contains a lot of character strengths like: grit, optimism, gratitude and curiosity
It´s about the life of the color maids in the 60´s in United States, and shows the treatment of the black people and how they lived with all the discrimination. 


We recommend this movie 100%


A book with Character Strengths!

THE MAZE RUNNER.

This book is amazing since the beggining until the end. It shows character strengths that are important for us, like: grit, curiosity, and social-intelligence.
The book tells the story of Thomas, a teen that wakes up in an elevator that takes him to a place called The Glade. He has no memory of who he is and how he got there. He will meet people and will make friends, that will help him make his way out of the nightmare of every glader, The maze.
While you read the book, you will discover secrets and how Thomas got to the glade.



We recommend this book 100%
