The Decision I Am Facing

Worksheet Description

This worksheet is a strategic decision-making tool that assists students in evaluating different options by listing their advantages and disadvantages. Titled “PROs and CONs,” the sheet provides a structured format for students to weigh the positive and negative aspects of potential choices. At the top, there is a space for the student to state the decision they are facing, setting the context for the exercise. Below this, the worksheet is divided into two sections, each dedicated to an option under consideration. For each option, there are separate labeled spaces to list the pros and cons, encouraging students to think critically and comprehensively about the implications of each choice.

The bottom of the worksheet prompts students to reflect on the information they have compiled and to conclude which option they believe is the best course of action, facilitating a reasoned and informed decision. The visual design includes an image of a hand weighing options, symbolizing the balance that needs to be considered when making decisions. This worksheet is an excellent resource for teaching students the valuable life skill of decision-making by systematically analyzing the potential outcomes of their actions. It can be used across various subjects and scenarios, from classroom debates to personal life choices, promoting critical thinking and self-reflection.
