Need help completing the attached assignment.
Self-Reflection Number 1
Think about your experience with mental health concerns, biases, and stereotypes. Being able to identify our personal biases towards mental illness or people who suffer with mental health problems is important. Self-awareness and being in touch with your level of comfort with this topic will help you know what your strengths and weaknesses are and where you need to dig deeper on the topic.
Self-Reflection Number 2
After watching the Kevin Hines story video, reflect on his thoughts he shared while on the bus to the Golden Gate bridge. He said he felt like nobody cared. What is the significance of relationships and your role as the teacher and leader of young people in your classroom? How can you ensure no one leaves your space feeling like Kevin?
Self-Reflection Number 3
Reflect on the topics of mental health, suicide prevention and substance abuse. How can school personnel make a difference in the lives of their students? What can you do as a new teacher to support students with any type of challenge or struggle?
