The lesson “Comfort vs. Discomfort (Part 2)” teaches children about self and social awareness, the managing of emotions and feelings, and how to verbalize those emotions and feelings in an appropriate way. The children learn the meaning of a clear conscience and vocalize the difference between a clear conscience and a conscience that is bothersome and how a clear conscience is “comfortable” and an unclear conscience is “uncomfortable.” The children then verbalize and demonstrate making the right choice in a situation in order to maintain a clear conscience. The children learn the importance of having good rules, and obeying the rules. The children take turns listing the rules they have in place at home and discuss how it is important that God placed parents in authority over children and for children to respect and obey their parents. The lesson includes guided instructions for the teacher, including preparation, a script, and suggested activities to facilitate further learning in a fun and interactive manner. This lesson is designed for children between 9-11 years, and is the 18th lesson in the 1st year Core Curriculum Set and part of the “Family” unit.
