FISH! For Schools Classroom Experience 9-12

When students and teachers discover common values, they create uncommonly successful classrooms.

The Classroom Experience provides interactive experiences designed to help students help you to build a more respectful, focused and fun learning environment.

This research-based approach includes age-appropriate activities, discussion starters, and exercises to help teachers and students:

• Forge caring, encouraging relationships.
• Build a community based on common language and inclusive behavior.
• Improve character.
• Reduce conflict and, when it occurs, resolve it.
• Enhance personal responsibility for behavior and effort.

Each Classroom Experience comes with a guide; Student FISH!, a video to help students transfer the lessons of the original FISH! film to their own lives; Classroom Cards that give students the chance to practice what they’ve learned; a Pete The Perch for fun; and a poster to reinforce the four FISH! practices.

These tools are easy to integrate into your existing curriculum. Instead of adding to your already busy plate, they are designed to support an environment that gives you more time for teaching and gives students more time for learning.

The Grades 9-12 Classroom Experience has been redesigned to include a wider array of activities and lessons for multiple learning styles that can be done in a homeroom setting in shorter time periods. This guide helps students focus on their current role in society, as well as plan for their future roles. Combining conversations, physical activities and small group exercises, FISH! For School Grades, 9-12 will address the common concerns of students who are moving from adolescence to adulthood.
