1.2 Basic Needs of Individuals
Food Water Shelter Clothing Safe Environment Training/Education Health

The way you fulfill your needs affect your thoughts and behavior
The way you fulfill your needs affect your thoughts and behavior. Therefore, your needs affect your personality. Abraham Maslow, a noted psychiatrist, devised a system for studying human needs that are arranged in the order of their priorities. His theory can help explain the influence of human needs on personality.

1.2.1 Human Needs Theory Human needs influence each person’s development. Influence of a hierarchy of human needs on personality. Lower need must be filled before upper- level needs receive attention. Child’s genetic potential will not flourish unless they are nurtured by adults as the child grows. Abraham Maslow ( )

1.2.1 Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs Draw and Label the Triangle
Need to maximize one’s potential. Need for self-respect and self-esteem and for the esteem of others. Need for community, family, friends, love, affection & intimacy. Need for security, stability, freedom from fear, structure & order. Need for shelter, food, clothes, air, sleep, and activity.

Level 1 of Maslow’s Theory of Human Needs
First priority is Physical Needs: food, water, shelter, clothing, & sleep Fulfillment of physical needs are necessary for: 1) good health 2) a state of well-being 3) the continuation of life

Safety & Security: You need to feel safe from physical danger & to feel secure in daily routines so you know what to expect from life. You need to know you are protected against financial troubles. When you have satisfied these needs, you have the courage to experience more of life and to expand your personality. On the other hand, if your life centers on protecting yourself, your personality has little chance to develop. Ex. Aggressive classmates

Love & Acceptance: Everyone needs to be needed. You need to feel that you are accepted by others & secure in your relationships with family members and friends. Praise, support, encouragement, and personal warmth will help you fulfill these needs. Then, you will have the chance to develop a healthy personality. You will be able to accept others and to give them praise, support, and affection.

Esteem: Self-esteem must be established first. You must respect yourself before you can expect others to respect you. Family members & friends can help with this. They can help you feel that you are a worthy person who adds an important dimension to their lives. When you have both self-esteem & esteem of others, you have the potential for further personality development.

Level 4 con’t. You have the confidence to strive for achievement and independence. You become a vital part of your world.

Self-Actualization: is the realization of your full potential. To reach this level, all other levels of needs must be at least partially fulfilled. At this level, you combine concern for self with concern for others and for society as a whole. You strive to become the very best you can be. When you reach self-actualization, you believe in yourself.

Level 5 con’t. You have the confidence to express your personal beliefs and to reach out to others and offer your support. Your personality is fully developed. However, this does NOT mean that you stop learning, or that you personality stops changing. You are now even more interested in improving yourself. You can continue to strive to become a better person.

1.2.2 Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs real-life scenarios.
Within your group you will create a scenario of a person experiencing life’s changes using Maslow’s Hierarchy of Human Needs pyramid.

8/26/2015 Happy WEDNESDAY. 1. Do you have FCCLA MONEY/FORMS TO TURN IN
8/26/2015 Happy WEDNESDAY!!! 1. Do you have FCCLA MONEY/FORMS TO TURN IN? 2. Is your name badge on? I WILL BE CHECKING! 3. Is your cell phone put away? Bell Ringer: What is something NEW you learned about a classmate yesterday? Who was that classmate and why do you think you remembered it?

Which Shoe Fits You?

Dress Shoe You are probably a good manager; dependable; able to lead, but you know when to be a part of a group to get things done; careful; you work quietly, but may speak out if necessary.

Tennis Shoe You are probably a comfortable person; you fit in most places and with most people; you like sports, both as a participant and as a spectator; you’re flexible and adaptable; help out when needed; friendly.

What shoe might that be and why?

Shoes come in different shapes and styles just as people are all different.
Shoes are also chosen for different circumstances, just as people make choices based on circumstances in their lives.

9/2/2014 Is your name badge on? Is your cell phone put away?
Do you have FCCLA forms/money to turn in? Bell Ringer : In three sentences tell me about your three day weekend.

1.3 Heredity and Environment
No two people are the same. Your environment helps shape you into the person you are, and the person you will become. (what you are exposed to) Who are you? Heredity is the passing on of traits from parents to their children.

Nature vs. Nurture still a debate?
So, was the way we behave engrained in us before we were born? Or has it developed over time in response to our experiences? You got your eye color from your mother, and your freckles from your father. But where did you get your thrill-seeking personality and talent for singing? Did you learn these from your parents or was it predetermined by your genes? While it's clear that physical characteristics are hereditary, the genetic waters get a bit more murky when it comes to an individual's behavior, intelligence, and personality. Ultimately, the old argument of nature vs. nurture has never really been won.

1.3 Heredity and Environment continued
Heredity determines what an organism may become, not what it will become. What an organism becomes depends on both its heredity and environment. What does this mean?

1.3.1 Kurt Lewin Most renown for his development of the field theory.
Field theory- one’s behavior is related both to one’s personal characteristics and to the social situation in which one finds oneself. Explained that we are greatly influenced by our surroundings.

1.4 Perception= Attitude and Tolerance
Your attitude is the result of your perceptions. Two people with different perceptions look at the same thing and thus think about it differently, and end up with different attitudes. However, both think they are right.

1.4 Describe how perception is related to attitude and tolerance
Attitude- a person’s basic outlook on life or a specific topic or issue Feeling good about yourself helps you feel and act successful, but be careful the attitude you relay to others, you may or may not realize is their perception of you. Be sure your body language and actions are relaying the message or attitude you want others to see!

Perception is our reaction to others or how we internally see another person’s actions, their looks, their facial expressions. People can see the same person and see them differently.

Tolerance is putting up with other people’s view points, which you may not agree with. For example: If you think someone is cool then you will tolerate them very easily. If you think someone is obnoxious then you will tolerate them for very long without a conflict.

1.4.1 Perception changes your attitude for tolerance.
Many problems in our life often come from relationships with other people. We cannot control other people, but we can influence others through • our own change in attitude • our own words • our action or reaction How can we do this?

Silent Seth Some people called Seth “quiet” because he rarely spoke in class. Others called him “stuck up” because he always sat by himself in the lunchroom, reading a book. Other people called him “a loser” because he went straight home at the end of the day and never joined in any after-school activities. But nobody knew Seth well enough to call him by is “real” name – SHY!

Most Likely to Succeed Carrie is a top student in her school and a leader in many important school organizations. She always makes a great show of how “busy” she is and has so many “important” things to do that she never seems to have time for friends. Even if they contact her after school, she is usually too “tired” to accept others’ invitations to be with them. Teachers may give Carrie perfect marks, and parents may call her a model child. But if you ask her classmates, Carrie definitely needs improvement.

Discussion: Compare and contrast how personal perception (you the student) is different from other’s perceptions (the teacher or another student). Give examples.

9/4/2014 Is your name badge on? Cell phone put away?

Get into your groups and start working You will present these at the beginning of class tomorrow!! Bell Ringer: How is your group project going? Is everyone participating?

Are you following dress code? Bell Ringer: How do you think you learn best? Give an Example. Why do you think you learn best this way?

1.5 Theory of Multiple Intelligences.
The theory of multiple intelligences was proposed by Howard Gardner in 1983 to more accurately define the concept of intelligence . Gardner's theory argues that intelligence does not sufficiently include the wide variety of abilities humans display.

1.5 Multiple Intelligences
Bodily-Kinesthetic- learn best through movement Interpersonal- like working with others Verbal-linguistic- like to read, learn best through lecture and note taking Logical-Mathematical-logic, reasoning, and numbers Intrapersonal- intuitive and have a deep understanding of self Visual-Spatial- good sense of direction and great eye-hand coordination Musical- enjoy music (sing and play an instrument) Naturalistic- good at growing plants and good with animals Other (spiritual or moral)

1.6 Learning Styles

1.6 Learning Styles Continued
Visual (spatial). You prefer using pictures, images, and spatial understanding. Aural (auditory-musical). You prefer using sound and music. Verbal (linguistic). You prefer using words, both in speech and writing. Physical (kinesthetic). You prefer using your body, hands and sense of touch. Logical (mathematical). You prefer using logic, reasoning and systems. Social (interpersonal). You prefer to learn in groups or with other people. Solitary (intrapersonal). You prefer to work alone and use self-study.

What is your Learning Style?
Why is it important for students to know what type of learning style they have? How can knowing what your learning style is enhance your performance in the classroom?

1.7 What are values? Qualities, characteristic or ideas about which we feel very strong. Our values affect our decisions, goals and behavior. They are standards to guide your actions, judgments and attitudes. They define what is of worth, what is beneficial and what is harmful.

1.7 Values If you remain in touch with your values, you will achieve your goals. Base everyday choices on your values and goals. Values are personal. Respect others’ value system.

1.7 Where do you get values? Values come from our homes, school, society, friends, TV, church, music, books, families, culture, etc. Different people and things influence you at different ages: Ages 1-7: Parents Ages 8-13: Teachers, Heroes Ages 14-20: Peers Ages 21+: Your values are established, but you may test your values from time to time.

Living My Values Activity
Fold piece of paper in half (hamburger style), leave folded. List 10 things you spend your time doing (activities).

Living My Values Activity
Turn page over. List your 5 most important values. Open paper. Draw lines to match the value to the activity. How do they match up? Do you need to re-evaluate your values or how you spend your time?

Are you following dress code? Bell Ringer: What is a goal you have? When you think you will reach this goal? How do you think you will reach this goal?

1.7 Goal-Setting Goal: something you want to achieve or to have.
Goals help you steer toward a satisfying future. Goals give you a purpose for making the most of every day. Goals help you think more critically when faced with decisions.

Why Set Goals? Goal - something a person intends to accomplish
Would you set out on a cross-country adventure without a road map? Setting goals are like a road map Provide direction Focus on the important things Keep the end result in mind

1.7 Setting a Goal Use the SMART approach. S – specific M – measurable
State the exact objective you would like to obtain M – measurable Describe how you will be able to measure if the goal is achieved or not A – attainable Determine how the goal can be reached, which is often determined by education level and other experiences R – realistic Do not set the goal for something unattainable or unrealistic T – time bound State when you desire to reach the goal

1.7 Short term and Long Term Goals
Short term goals- are goals that are accomplished in a year or less. Long-term goals- are goals that are accomplished in a year or longer.

Here Is A Challenge! Supplies: A pinch of toothpicks and a handful of small marshmallows Task: Create a free standing tower using your supplies But….Before you build, work as a team and write down a GOAL to serve as your road map Ready – Set – Build!

Bell Ringer 9/17 Answer these Questions about your project yesterday.
Was your goal specific? How did you measure if you reached your goal? Was your goal attainable or possible? Was your goal realistic? How much time did you set aside to achieve your goal?

Moral Development Theory
1.7.3 Lawrence Kohlberg ( ) Moral Development Theory Identifies steps toward character development. Children are moral philosophers. Children experience a series of predictable stages in their moral reasoning. Levels of Moral Development: Level 1 – Preconventional (4-10 years) Decisions are based on consequences. Stage 1 - Children respond to threat of punishment. Stage 2 - Children learn that correct action brings reward.

Moral Development Theory
1.7.3 Lawrence Kohlberg ( ) Moral Development Theory Identifies steps toward character development. Level 2 – Conventional (10 years and older) Decisions are based on social rules and expectations. Stage 3 - Children are concerned about other’s opinions and that “good” behavior pleases others. Stage 4 - Law and order are important. Level 3 – Postconventional (some adolescents and adults) Decisions are based on personal ethics of what is morally right. Stage 5 - Moral decisions are made through understanding that society’s rules are for everyone and were made by consensus. Stage 6 - Universal principles determine right from wrong.

Bell Ringer: How much money do you have left over? Did you buy everything you wanted yesterday? Tell me about it.

Positive vs. Negative Self-Concept
Positive self-concept- the mental picture you have of yourself as being equal with other people Negative self-concept- when you see yourself as not being equal with other people

Positive self concept:
Respect Reliable Responsible Has self-control Sets and achieve goals Avoids blaming others for mistakes Resolves conflicts in a positive manner Takes care of themselves

Have self doubt/negative attitude Easily persuaded by peer pressure
Negative Self Concept: Have self doubt/negative attitude Easily persuaded by peer pressure Doesn’t take care of health Has poor relationships skills Feels that the world is against them Feels that there is no hope for improvement

Effects of Self-concept
Chronic illnesses such as diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure can be linked to poor self esteem and stress. People who feel good about themselves are more likely to take care of their bodies. People with a good self concept are less likely to engage in activities that risk personal health

1.8 What is self-esteem? Self-esteem- the confidence and worth you have in yourself. If you like who you are, you generally develop a healthy self-esteem and vice versa If you keep a positive attitude on a daily basis, you’ll maintain healthy self-esteem. A positive attitude makes you feel self-confident

1.8.1 Self-Esteem Steps to building a positive self-esteem:
Measure yourself honestly Practice positive self-talk Accept what you can’t change Focus on the present Take one step at a time Be a friend to yourself

1.8.1 Factors that influence self-esteem
What influences your self-esteem? Physical health- do you get enough exercise, rest, and have plenty of energy? Mental health- do you exercise your brain and are free from mental illnesses such as depression? Environment- do you feel safe in your home, school, and community?

1.9 Traits of Introverts and Extroverts
Ambivert- a person who has some characteristics of both extroverts and introverts. Extroverted- focused outward on others. Like to “think out loud”. Approximately 75% of the population are extroverts. Introverted- focused inward or oneself. Tend to think things out alone and express their ideas and opinions only when they are sure about them. How might this cause problems in communication between extroverts and introverts?

1.9 Identify traits of introverts & extroverts
Extrovert - is a person who is energized by being around other people. - friendly - outgoing Extroverts tend to "fade" when alone and can easily become bored without other people around. When given the chance, an extrovert will talk with someone else rather than sit alone and think. Extroverts tend to think as they speak.

Extroverts often think best when they are talking.
Concepts just don't seem real to them unless they can talk about them; reflecting on them isn't enough. Extroverts enjoy social situations and even seek them out since they enjoy being around people.

Introvert - is a person who is energized by being alone and whose energy is drained by being around other people. Person who is reserved, quiet, and solitary Introverts are far more likely to think before they speak. They are more concerned with the inner world of the mind. They enjoy thinking, exploring their thoughts and feelings.

They often avoid social situations because being around people drains their energy. This is true even if they have good social skills. After being with people for any length of time, such as at a party, they need time alone to "recharge."

1.9.1 Carl C. Jung Emphasized understanding yourself emotionally and mentally through exploring dreams. Emphasized the importance of balance between science and logic and spirituality and appreciation of the unconscious realm. Studied extroverts and introverts.
