Word of the Month - HONESTY

Our character education Word of the Month for January was HONESTY.To be honest you must tell the truth.

The story of Jack and the Wolf was a good way to introduce this concept to the students because Jack does not tell the truth in the story. Jack gets in trouble because he plays tricks and lies to his friends. We also read a story called 'I Tell the Truth' which presents students with certain scenarios.

As a class, we made a poster of different times in our lives when we have been honest (in blue) and times when we have not been honest (in red). The discussions we have had in class have been very productive and helpful to the students.
