Advisory Week #3--Spark Champions

This week's Advisory period continued last weeks focus on what "sparks" a student's interests.  Students reflected on a quote from Oprah Winfrey who said "A mentor is someone who allows you to see the hope inside yourself."  Students were asked to talk with a partner about this quote, what it means to them, and whether they believe the quote.  Students talked a little bit about "Spark Champions."  Spark champions are adults in a student's life who has helped them discover their spark, helped them grow, and helped them pursue their spark.

Here are some questions you can ask your student so that you can have a conversation with them about their "spark champion."

Do you have a spark champion?
Who is your spark champion?
What does your spark champion do for you that helps you to pursue your spark?
If you don't have a champion, how can you find one?
