The ThinkFirst
For Youth (TFFY) Curriculum Program, of the ThinkFirst
National Injury Prevention Foundation, provides youth
in grades four through eight with lessons on decision-making
skills, a confident self image, and an ability to resolve
conflicts and withstand peer pressure.
This curriculum includes a variety
of different teaching styles and age-appropriate activities
to best meet the learning and development needs of the
students.
The TFFY program includes:
Knowledge base of vocabulary and concepts, presented
in a format of progressive difficulty, "Success
Scenarios"™ in
which decision making skills are practiced;
Home and classroom activities to develop a practical
understanding of conceptual constructs and peer pressure
situations wherein self-confidence and self image integrity
allow appropriate behavioral response; and conflict resolution
skills based on effective communication skills.
