Below is a compact teacher-ready plan and student-facing prompts for your SOLE Self-Reflection Carousel. It includes station directions, sentence starters, example student responses, an assessment rubric tied to your success criteria, timing suggestions, and quick differentiation strategies.
Lesson goal (short)
- Students will explain what leadership means to them and identify everyday examples.
- Students will describe the four parts of SOLE and connect each to leadership.
SOLE — short definitions (teacher language)
- Step Out — moments when you leave your comfort zone to try, risk, or learn something new.
- Own — the daily habits and self-care choices that shape your consistency and influence.
- Lead — the actions and behaviors where you guide, influence, or set an example for others.
- Elevate — how you help others succeed, grow, or feel included.
Logistics and timing (one 30–40 minute class)
- Setup: 4 stations in the room (Step Out, Own, Lead, Elevate). Each has a poster/card with prompts and a record sheet or Google Form link.
- Time: 6–8 minutes per station, 1 minute rotate = 26–34 minutes total. + 5–7 minute whole-class debrief and exit ticket.
- Materials: station cards, clipboards/paper, pens, coloured markers (optional), timer.
Station instructions for students (same at each station)
- Read the station prompts.
- Use the SOLE prompt: describe and give at least one specific personal example. Aim for 3–5 meaningful bullet points or a short paragraph.
- If you already wrote something at a station, add one improvement or a second example.
- Be prepared to share one example when time is up.
Station prompts and sentence starters (ready to print)
1) Step Out — Describe your comfort zone
Prompts:
- What is your comfort zone for school, social, or personal life?
- Describe one time you stepped out of it. What happened? How did you feel?
- What did you learn that helps you lead in the future?
Sentence starters:
- “My comfort zone is…”
- “One time I stepped out was when I…”
- “I felt _____ because _____.”
- “I learned that I can… / Next time I will…”
2) Own — List your daily habits and self-care
Prompts:
- What routines and habits help you perform and feel your best?
- What one habit do you take responsibility for that supports others?
- Name one habit you want to improve and how you will do it.
Sentence starters:
- “A daily habit I have is…”
- “I take responsibility for… by…”
- “I will improve ___ by doing ___.”
3) Lead — Identify your leadership behaviors
Prompts:
- What behaviors show that you are a leader (in school, home, online)?
- Give two short, specific examples of when you led in daily life.
- Which leadership qualities did you use (e.g., listening, courage, organizing)?
Sentence starters:
- “I show leadership when I…”
- “One example of when I led was…”
- “I used _____ (skill) to help/solve _____.”
4) Elevate — Describe how you help others thrive
Prompts:
- How do you lift others up or make them feel included?
- Describe a time you helped someone improve or feel better.
- Suggest one new action you can take this week to elevate someone.
Sentence starters:
- “I help others by…”
- “Once I helped someone by…”
- “This week I will try to… to help someone.”
Examples students can model (short, real-life style)
- Example A (Step Out + Lead): “I usually don’t speak first in class. Last week I volunteered to start a group discussion. I felt nervous but asked 3 classmates questions and helped our group stay on task. I learned I can start a conversation and encourage others to join.”
- Example B (Own + Elevate): “I do my homework right after school (habit). I started a short study session for a friend who was falling behind. I explain one concept and cheer them on. I’ll continue this each Friday so they feel supported.”
Two explicit personal-example responses you can ask students to produce (meets success criteria)
- Student example 1: “I organized a 10-minute review before the math test for my table. I explained one problem clearly and asked others to share strategies. It helped two classmates understand and feel more confident.”
- Student example 2: “I stood up for a classmate who was being left out of a group project. I invited them to sit with us and asked the teacher to assign roles so everyone could participate. They felt included and did great work.”
Assessment rubric (quick, aligns to Success Criteria)
- Mastery (3): Student writes and discusses two specific personal examples of stepping out or leading; accurately defines each SOLE word; reflects on improvements and next steps.
- Proficient (2): Student writes one clear personal example and one general example OR two brief examples with limited detail; identifies SOLE words correctly.
- Emerging (1): Student gives vague or no personal examples; shows partial or incorrect understanding of SOLE words.
Suggestions for teacher moves
- Circulate, ask one probing question per student per station (e.g., “What made this stepping out possible?” or “Who else did you involve?”).
- If students finish early, ask them to add a concrete next-step (“What will you do this week?”).
- During debrief, invite 3–4 students to share one strong example and one commitment.
Exit ticket (1–2 minutes)
- Write one leadership action you will take this week (specific, when, with whom). Example: “This Friday I will invite Jamie to join my study group and ask them what topic they want help with.”
Differentiation and supports
- For students who need support: provide sentence starters printed on the sheet; allow verbal responses recorded by the teacher or peer scribe.
- For advanced students: ask for a leadership plan with measurable outcomes (e.g., “I will meet weekly for 4 weeks and track quiz scores”).
- Allow use of first language if helpful, then translate or summarize in English.
Quick printable station cards (text to copy/paste)
- Step Out: “Describe your comfort zone. Share one time you stepped out, how you felt, and what you learned.”
- Own: “List daily habits and self-care. Which habit supports others? Name one habit to improve and your plan.”
- Lead: “Identify leadership behaviors. Give two brief examples of when you led and what skills you used.”
- Elevate: “Describe how you help others thrive. Give a time you elevated someone and one new action you’ll take.”
If you want, I can:
- Create a one-page printable worksheet for students with all four stations.
- Produce a slide deck with station prompts and timers.
- Draft an observation checklist you can use while circulating.
