As the school counselor, I teach classroom lessons on character education each month for students in grades K-5. Each month we focus on a different character trait. Monthly character are: September-Respect, October-Responsibility, November-Citizenship, December-Generosity, January-Cooperation, February-Kindness, March-PerseveranceApril-Self-discipline, May-Honesty.
In addition to character traits, classroom lesson topics include: feeling identification, emotional regulation, coping skills, friendship, problem solving, conflict resolution, bullying, and career awareness. Each month a brief summary of our lesson will come how with your child to give you a chance to talk with your child about what he or she learned.
