A self-awareness workshop for indigent kindergarten mothers

This creative project attempted to help six indigent black kindergarten mothers from an inner city school community to develop better self-concepts through a systematically planned sequence of workshop sessions conducted by the author.The sessions were on good grooming and charm, physical fitness and diet, home planning and budget, social activities and political awareness.The Tennessee Self Concept Scale and the Sentence Completion Test were administered to the six mothers pre and post. A comparative evaluation of test data indicated a decrease in conflict of emotions by the Sentence Completion Test and an increase in the total positive score by the Tennessee Self Concept Scale.The writer concluded that progress was made toward the development of better self-concepts by the mothers as a consequence of these experiences.
