Download or read book Character Education Activities for K 6 Classrooms written by Sandra Peyser and published by . This book was released on 1997 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each year more children come to school unprepared to relate appropriately to others and to contribute to a positive school climate. These children seem to have more problems and less ability to cope with the structural environment of the school. Educators tend to agree that many children lack the character traits necessary for healthy, positive growth and development. Many factors contribute to this situation. Family mobility separates people from their extended families; children spend a limited amount of time with their parents or other influential family members; and children often view inappropriately portrayed behaviors on television and in the movies. Schools have identified character education as part of the solution. This book offers character education activities for the classroom than can be integrated into the school day. It presents 52 activities that can be included in social studies, health, and language arts lessons. The activities are designed for counselors, social workers, and other student services personnel to use when working with individuals, small groups, and classroom guidance. Activities focus on responsibility, good citizenship, compassion, cooperation, and character formation. (Contains 7 references.) (JDM)

Download or read book Novel Engineering K 8 written by Elissa Milto and published by National Science Teachers Association. This book was released on 2020 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Picture your students designing a hearing aid for the main character in El Deafo-and then disguising it as a fashion accessory. Or imagine them helping the shipwrecked Swiss Family Robinson build a structure to keep them cool under the hot sun. Novel Engineering shows how your students can use anything from a picture book to a novel to a historical text as the basis for an engineering design challenge. This innovative resource will have your students pulling information from literature to identify a problem. Then, using details from the story, they'll apply the engineering design process to develop functional solutions for their "clients"-the book's characters. Novel Engineering provides you with plenty of practical guidance for integrating engineering and English language arts (ELA), including a thorough introduction to the concept and detailed implementation advice. But the book comes to life through five in-depth case studies featuring the use of novels, a biography, and a nonfiction historical text. In addition to demonstrating Novel Engineering projects in the classroom, the case studies let you practice thinking about what your own students' work could look like and how you would respond. You'll see that this approach doesn't require books outside your existing ELA or social studies curriculum or a specific building-materials kit. You'll also see that Novel Engineering can help you engage students in a powerful new way. As the authors write, "We have been encouraged by the excitement that students and teachers have shown for their work during Novel Engineering units. ... Students have taken ownership of their learning and are able to navigate the steps of the engineering design process, creating functional solutions to problems they have identified in texts.""--
Download or read book Bringing in a New Era in Character Education written by William Damon and published by Hoover Press. This book was released on 2013-09-01 with total page 220 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The educational system in the United States has ended its failed experiment with separating the intellectual from the moral. Schools from K–12 to colleges and universities are increasingly paying attention to students' values and character. But how can we ensure this new era in character education makes the right kind of difference to young people? What obstacles in our current educational system must we overcome, and what new opportunities can we create? This anthology offers unique perspectives on what is needed to make character education an effective, lasting part of our educational agenda. Each chapter points out the directions that character education must take today and offers strategies essential for progress. The expert contributors reveal why relativism has threatened the moral development of young people in our time—and how we can pass core values down to new generations of students in ways that will elevate their conduct and their life goals. And they show the critical importance of reestablishing student morality and character as targets of higher education's central mission. Perhaps most important, they clarify the necessity of authority in any moral education endeavor—and show how it is a powerful force for developing personal freedom and building character.

This handbook shares model lesson plans for educators, which incorporate research on the six pillars of character, research based strategies and effective classroom practices which include various lesson delivery methods. Teacher resources are included in this handbook that allow easy implementation of the lesson plans, incorporating both literature and web-related resources. The research based strategies as well as classroom practices served as the foundation of the handbook. Specifically, the handbook provides essential research on the six pillars of character, model lesson plans on teaching each of the character traits, and teacher resources for effective implementation and development of further Character Education lesson plans.
