Description

Life is not always easy. Sometimes it puts obstacles in our way that we may stumble over. These can be difficult or sad situations, small problems, or major blows of fate—such as the death of a loved one. Resilience means not giving up and making it through these crises well. It means getting back up when you have fallen. And often, you emerge stronger than before.

Discover 12 inspiring topics on resilience together with your learners:
  1. What is resilience?
  2. Acceptance
  3. Optimism
  4. Self-efficacy
  5. Responsibility
  6. Networks
  7. Focusing on solutions
  8. Taking time out
  9. Lighthouse projects around the world
  10. Engagement
  11. Help
  12. Shaping the future

Learners will:
  • build and expand vocabulary related to the topic of resilience
  • use linguistic tools to talk about emotions and their own lives
  • develop empathy, self-reflection, and social skills
  • interpret proverbs and idiomatic expressions in the context of resilience
