Hope can be used and taught in classrooms through various lessons and activities. Here, we have divided the numerous activities into different categories based on our framework.

Hope activities are concepts that have been developed by our research team as potential ways of bringing hope into your classroom, and hope lessons are activities that our teacher-researchers have adapted to connect to curricular outcomes in specific grades.
