Hero awareness skills

In this module our focus is on developing a common, fundamental vocabulary of fear,

risk, courage, and heroism. As these fundamental concepts are learned, the first
skill in heroism can be introduced: noticing danger and adversity when it appears.
Heroic behavior will not occur if a person is unaware of the opportunity.

Key ideas and actions

1. Fear is necessary for safety.
2. Both mind and body are involved in fear.
3. Each of us reacts differently in what we tell ourselves and what we feel when we
are afraid.
4. Fear can be based on right or wrong information.
5. Fear can cloud good judgment.
6. Risk can be frightening.
7. Doing the right thing can sometimes be risky.
8. Courage and fear can coexist.
9. Courage can exist in different intensities.
10. Courage is not necessarily aggression.
11. Courage often goes unnoticed.
12. Taking a risk to help oneself or another in a positive way is a noble act.
13. Heroism can be dramatic and attention-getting.
14. Heroism can be quiet and hidden from view.
15. Heroism involves accepting a risk or sacrifice to achieve something noble.
16. Heroism is a test in response to adversity.
17. Heroism involves overcoming competing emotions.
18. Heroism means coming to terms with risk and sacrifice.
19. Use the Hero Template to profile heroism.
20. Understand that the need for heroes exists in all cultures.
21. Notice adversity and opportunities for noble action.

Awareness activities (grades 4-6)

1. What is fear?
2. Risky business
3. What is courage?
4. What does "noble" mean?
5. What is heroism?
6. Profiles of heroism
7. Cultural heroes
8. Turning on your radar

Hero intelligence/problem-solving skills

In this module our focus is on dispassionate thought. Strong emotions can cloud
thinking and impair judgment. Actual control of emotions is one focus of the
Strength skills module. Intelligence and Strength have to work together.

In emergency conditions, this problem solving can be so fast that the actor is not
even conscious of making a decision. Practicing problem solving repeatedly in low-
emotion circumstances will help strengthen this up-tempo thinking. Keeping one's
mind engaged is difficult for children who often need adult help mentoring them
through the steps. This "Stop and Think" is incredibly important when the
circumstances are dangerous. (See "Are there risks to heroism?" on the Q&A page.)

The Ring of Valor is focused on nurturing strength in children in a developmentally

appropriate manner while emphasizing making thoughtful choices. This is why our
pins say, "Be an Everyday Hero...With a Smart Heart." The goal of the Intelligence
module is to help children be effective in response to fearful situations while
avoiding reckless behavior. This is an extremely difficult balancing act because
chance and risk is always involved in these types of decisions.

Key ideas and actions

1. When you encounter a problem generate alternatives.
2. Consider the possible consequences of alternatives you identify.
3. Evaluate alternatives based on consequences and choose the best solution.
4. Evaluate the quality of your information and your emotions; keep thinking
straight.
5. Know where danger lurks.
6. Keep thinking when you are hot.
7. Consider the risks of alternatives.
8. Choosing not to move forward when you are afraid has consequences.
9. Consider your strengths when making a choice.

Caring activities (grades 4-6)

1. Introduction to problem solving
2. Introduction to threat assessment

Hero caring skills

In this module our focus is on developing compassion and empathy for oneself and
others. Heroic behavior will not occur if a person does not care. Caring about
oneself is not the same thing as being selfish. Unlike selfishness, true self-care
is noble. A child who stands up to give a speech with trembling knees or admits to
a wrongdoing, knowing unpleasant consequences will follow, is motivated by self-
care. These children are essentially saying, "I want to be proud of myself and gain
recognition from others as an honorable, strong person." This behavior is quite
different from the child who gorges himself on cookies meant for the entire family
or steals money from his brother to buy something for himself. Both actions are
more an expression of self-hate than self-care.

Heroic behavior will not occur unless a person cares. Children learn to care by
having someone care about them. Indifference to suffering that originated in a lack
of love and care at home is extremely difficult, if not impossible to change in a
school setting. Schools provide a social laboratory in which children learn to
nurture and be nurtured by others outside of the family.

Of course, children will want to discuss heroic action when these matters are
raised. Keep in mind that we are gradually building a knowledge base that leads to
action. As much as possible, keep the focus on the elements of heroism that make
the behavior possible.

Key ideas and actions

1. Caring is of fundamental importance for heroic behavior.
2. Have compassion for the suffering of others.
3. Protecting one's self-respect may take courage.

Caring activities (grades 4-6)

1. Tribal cruelty
2. Would you care?
3. Caring for myself

Hero strength skills

In this module our focus is on the idea of psychological strength in managing

strong emotions. Because heroic behavior involves taking a risk or making a
sacrifice, strong emotions of fear, sadness, or anger are likely. Courageous people
feel strong emotions. Instead of being driven by them, however, they make the
choice of taking noble action.

There are advanced concepts here that many children will find some difficulty
understanding. Consider this an introduction to these issues and have reasonable
expectations for their ability to apply what they are learning to their behavior.
Simplify concepts as much as possible but do not shy away from having great
expectations for what they can accomplish.

Key ideas and actions

1. Our bodies react when we have strong feelings.
2. We can understand what we are thinking by how we are feeling.
3. Having an emotion is not the same thing as taking an action.
4. Strong emotions can stop us from thinking.
5. Strong emotions can cause us to make mistakes.
6. We have to work hard to calm our strong emotions.
7. Making good decisions often means "thinking under fire"

Awareness activities (grades 4-6)

1. Recognizing emotional arousal
2. Recognizing emotional highjacking
3. Thinking under fire
Hero action skills

In this module our focus is on taking action, actually putting a plan into motion.
Since this emphasis tends to be on skill training, easy incorporation into the
typical classroom is going to be more difficult. Teachers and parents should work
together to ensure that children receive developmentally appropriate educational
experiences in first aid and self-protection. We want children to understand the
nature of heroism and to prepare themselves as best as possible to deal with
situations that might be thrust upon them.

Key ideas and actions

1. Heroic action is putting knowledge to work.
2. Recognize courageous behavior in themselves and others.
3. Communities of individuals can act heroically.
4. Learn the fundamentals of first aid.
5. Learn the fundamentals of self-defense.
6. Learn about the courageous behavior of others in their familes and community.

Awareness activities (grades 4-6)

1. Investigate the action
2. Wall of honor
3. Community heroism
4. First aid
5. Self-defense
6. Courage interviews
