Activity 2 Find out how self-motivated you are Background information
The purpose of this activity is for learners to assess themselves to see how self- motivated they are at present.
Guidelines to implement this activity • Discuss self-motivation and ask the class to give some examples if possible. These could include doing all their Monday homework on Friday so they have the weekend free to spend time with friends, or not spending their pocket money at the tuck shop but saving it to buy a pair of trainers they really want. Explain how positive self-talk can influence our self-concept.
