This clever dramatic presentation explores the age-old internal struggle with one’s inner sense of<br />
value, how our perception is often defined by our environment and how easily it can alter our<br />
gauge for right and wrong. Al-x is a self-conscience teenager of the prehistoric 50’s who wrestles<br />
to find what truly defines a caveman verses how everyone else defines one’s worth. Helped by his<br />
own reflection and the wisdom of an old fishing soul, Al-x finds himself before his fate is sealed.<br />
This is one fish tale that will change your life as much as the ones who lived it!<br />
This Championeers! adventure is full of twists and turns as Al-x and his friends discover the<br />
difference between peer pressure and peer power as they learn “Survival of the Fittest” from a<br />
whole new perspective.<br />

Hey There Parents & Jr. Caveboys and Cavegirls!<br />
Welcome to <strong>Caveman</strong> <strong>Rock</strong>!<br />
Championeers! is the only IQ-EQ<br />
Leadership Education system in the<br />
world that uses the performing arts to<br />
empower students in school while<br />
giving them tools to succeed in life.<br />
It’s AWESOME!<br />
We believe the best teacher a child<br />
will ever have is you, so we put you in<br />
the driver’s seat with these wonderful<br />
family resources.<br />
We provide the basic tools and<br />
lessons based on universal values that<br />
are common to everyone. They are<br />
things like: be kind, be honest, and<br />
don’t hurt people. You take them from<br />
there and discuss them with your<br />
children using your own unique family<br />
values and belief systems.<br />
In this unit we are training Peer<br />
Leaders to help peer pressure proof<br />
their schools using the tools of truth and<br />
identity.<br />
Peer pressure is a huge issue on<br />
school campuses around the world.<br />
When it is properly harnessed it can<br />
turn your school into a center of selfgovernance,<br />
innovation, and high<br />
achievement. When it is not harnessed<br />
it leads to bullying, rejection and<br />
teasing, creating an emotionally unsafe<br />
environment that robs many children of<br />
their full potential. These early<br />
experiences often define children<br />
throughout their livetimes!<br />
As a Championeers! Peer Leader,<br />
students lead through service to create a<br />
campus culture where every child feels<br />
safe and valued. This only happens if<br />
everyone realizes how amazing every<br />
single person truly is.<br />
This is the journey of <strong>Caveman</strong><br />
<strong>Rock</strong>.<br />
Not everyone is going to look, think<br />
or act the same. We are all wonderfully<br />
different. That’s what makes us special.<br />
Healthy peer pressure helps us<br />
celebrate our uniquenesses while<br />
providing a culture that honors every<br />
member of our great big “Social<br />
Family.”<br />
Enjoy, and remember - this is just a<br />
launching pad for family discussions.<br />
You are the superhero your child is<br />
waiting to hear from. Additional info<br />

I’LL BE ME and YOU BE YOU!<br />
Hey Jr. Cavemen, as Peer Leaders it’s important for you to know what peer pressure is, how<br />
it works and what you can do to stop it. Today’s lesson is on comparison and learning to like<br />
ourselves for who we are.<br />
Have you ever compared yourself to someone else? We all do. We notice who has the same<br />
color hair and eyes or how tall we are compared to other children in our class.<br />
Comparison is very normal and it’s a good thing. One of our greatest needs as people is to<br />
belong in social groups; we want to be liked by the people around us. To do this we compare<br />
ourselves to make sure our actions and appearance are similar to everyone else so we “fit in.” In<br />
fact, even adults compare themselves. Clothing fashions, hair styles, and language trends are<br />
formed as a result. Comparison helps people live in society together much like the members of a<br />
really big family, and that’s an awesome thing!<br />
Comparison becomes negative peer pressure when we exclude or do selfish things that hurt<br />
other members of our “Really Big Social Family.” Can you imagine having a family movie night<br />
and not letting one of your siblings watch<br />
because they laughed funny? We’d never do<br />
that, yet so many times, kids at school are made<br />
fun of for looking or acting different than<br />
everyone else. Comparison is good when it<br />
causes us to want to achieve greater goals and<br />
I’ll Be Me and<br />
You Be You,<br />
That’s What<br />
Makes Us <strong>Rock</strong>!
do our personal best. It’s good to be a team member, even wear the same team jersey, we just don’t<br />
ever want to lose our uniquely wonderful self in the process. The way you stop comparison from<br />
turning into negative peer pressure is to like yourself for who you are then work to be the very best<br />
you, you can be.<br />
LEADERSHIP CHALLENGE - THE THANKFUL GAME!<br />
Leaders don’t need to copy other people because they like who they are. This week’s challenge is<br />
to learn The Thankful Game. This game is super simple and will help you realize how amazing you<br />
are! Tonight when you go to bed I want you to wiggle your toes and consider how great they are. Did<br />
you realize you couldn’t keep your balance if you didn’t have toes?! Then, simply be thankful for<br />
them! Next, think about your wonderful, amazing feet! They are incredible! Think of all the things<br />
you can do because you have feet, then be thankful for them. Work your way up through your whole<br />
body. Your legs, knee caps, hips, spine, all your organs, eye lashes and ears…<br />
everything you can think of from your toes to your nose.<br />
Do this every night this week and continue to do it every night<br />
of this course. You will soon realize that you are<br />
incredible! Even iIf you never did a single thing,<br />
your existence is MARVELOUS!<br />
You are special indeed! You<br />
don’t need to copy anyone<br />
when you are great<br />
just the way<br />
you are!
