PROGRAM FEATURES


Lead your students to mindful practices and mindful choices.

Pathways to Empower is an understanding of neuroscience combined with simple, real-life applications that are unique, impactful and engaging for students. The curriculum’s core surrounds brain science and the Resilient Mindset Model, an approach that proactively helps students build healthy and resilient brain pathways. Their response to challenges is guided through the four S framework: self, situation, support and strategies.

At each level, students engage with age-appropriate content and get to meet the four characters of the brain, a group of illustrated insects that represent the key brain functions involved in decision-making.

The Pathways to Empower Student Workbooks are designed to provide a comprehensive learning experience and includes four modules:

  • Neuroscience 101 introduces the developmental stages of the brain and the functions and systems at work.
  • The Resilient Mindset ModelTM explains how the brain naturally responds to challenges, so you can use challenges as opportunities to build resilience and form common nonjudgmental language to better your mindset.
  • Brain-Based Relationships applies all the science, frameworks, and strategies learned in the first two modules to your interactions with others.
  • Mental Health Literacy covers the four goals of mental health literacy through the lens of neuroscience.

The elementary collection of sequential teacher resources begins with an engaging look at neuroscience, helping students build a strong understanding of how their brains work. That knowledge then comes to life through lessons on social relationships and the four key parts of mental health literacy. Each grade-level resource offers evidence-based strategies to strengthen resilience, encourage connection, and promote positive mental health in a fun and meaningful way.

  • Grade K - Creating a Healthy Me 
  • Grade 1 - Growing a Stronger Me
  • Grade 2 - Wired to Connect 
  • Grade 3 - Discovering Brain Power
  • Grade 4 - Building My Relationships
  • Grade 5 - Making Thoughtful Moves
