Impact to My Classroom

# of Students Impacted: 70

We had so many great lessons on key character traits such as loyalty, caring, responsibility, etc. For example, we had the books purchased to go with each trait. I would read the book, we would summarize what happened, and identify what skill and trait that book portrayed. Then they filled out exit tickets and got a paper key with that trait. They had to collect all 10 keys when they got done.

Original Grant Overview

Goal

The goal is to teach my students and many more in my future years of teaching about important character traits that teach them the meaning of each trait and the importance of how they build good character.  

 

What will be done with my students

Every two to three weeks I will be focusing on one of the character traits. There are worksheets and literature that will go along with this package to reinforce their meanings. I will also be using KAGAN strategies where they interact with one another to make sure they all have 100% understanding of that character trait and what are examples of it.  

 

Benefits to my students

These in depth character building activities and books will build positive role models and hopefully it will be contagious among their peers and I can get their teachers involved and talk more about how we can get our students and ourselves on a positive mindset.  

 

Budget Narrative

This includes the character building set and the books that will be used for each of the lessons. Also, it includes the Splatter Character Poster which shows other classes who walk down the hallway of how we/they can show that character trait in their classroom or even outside their classroom.
