To register, your students must submit their answers
to four questions about life:
Who am I? What do I want
to be when I grow up? How do I want the world to be better when I grow up?
What can I do now to make this happen?
-
Kidlink's
registration team will review their answers. When approved, they will be
made public on a special "student home page," called a
KidPage.
-
The four questions motivate students to develop critical
thinking skills, write for an international audience, and read answers by
students living in other countries. The image above is answers submitted
as art by Daiana, an illiterate girl from Brasil. The act made her decide
to learn to read and write to communicate better with new friends.
-
On a deeper level, the four questions contribute to help
students decide directions for their lives. Motivate learning by demonstrating
how school contributes to help them become and achieve what they want.
-
Periodically, challenge students to review their answers.
Let them revise their KidPages when interests, dreams or goals change. A
dated record of updates are kept so that they may learn about how their minds
change over time. They can change their answers any time, all year long.
-
For deeper study on the questions, use
the first
module of
Who-Am-I? Use other
Kidlink life-skills
training programs to help students internalize and add depth to goals.
