QUIZ MATCH GAME & QUALITY QUIZ
QUIZ MATCH GAME: Divide into teams and play a match game with the Quality Quiz Match Game Cards. The team with the most matches wins. This will help you think up positive qualities.
QUALITY QUIZ: Compete for five minutes having each youth think up the sweetest- spirit qualities they can and write them on their own personal Sweet-Spirit Quality Quiz. Before reading qualities, have individuals place a check to the left by those they listed. Then as you take turns sharing qualities you like, write those you like on your list. If someone names your quality place a check on the right of that quality (possibly placing two or more extra check marks by the quality you first thought of). The winner is the one who has unique qualities on their list that were not listed by others.
I Am” Quality Mirror Motivator
Choose a quality from the Sweet-Spirit Quality Quiz card that you would like to develop and write it here, writing what you will do to develop this quality. They can draw their hairstyle around the face. Post it on the mirror to remind you of this sweet-spirit quality you wish to develop.
