My Take
Thrively is an amazing tool. It opens kids eyes up to the possibilities in the world. It helps them find their passions and then connect those to the real world. I like the view as a teacher of my class's profile and the the specifics of the learners in my classroom.
How I Use It
Thrively is a great tool to get your students to know more about themselves. The students take a strength assessment and are then provided with a strengths profile. Based on this profile the students have Pathways to follow, Activities around them, digital portfolios and more.

Awesomeness
It is versatile as it addresses many needs our school has:
• identifies top five strengths, as well as interests and aspirations.
• suggests careers based on their strengths and interests.
• has careers videos about suggested careers
• Hope Index inventory identifies those with low hope: (Has goals + knows how to get there).
• Wellness Check shows how students are doing from week to week.
• Digital portfolio to show off students' best work.

• video playlists to develop their strengths, explore occupations, grow social emotional wellness.
• allows parents to see their childrens' work
• I believe it breaks down race and ethnic barriers between me and students.
