Collection of Data
Data from Survey
I have participated in relational aggression towards other girls
More data
I feel confident in how to handle situations when I am being targeted by relational aggression.
Interesting data
I am confident in my communication skills and letting friends know how I am honestly feeling most of the time
The main reason I am in this group....
• How women can become stronger leaders in the world • to help younger girls with confidence and friendship issues • Have girls feel like they can talk to somebody thats close to their • Self confidence more about leadership• How others are going thorough the same thins i m • How to empower girls • the best ways i can handle difficult situations and help others in them. • be a better leader• confidence• Skills for myself to learn and to share with others about being self • To be a good leader and represent girls and our school in a better way.
