Direct lessons are lessons that we do every Wednesday to showcase the 8 habits in order to help our students learn more about them. A plan has been put into place schoolwide which outlines when all students will be directly taught the 8 habits and other leadership principles. Each grade level has synergized as a team to develop a yearly plan of lessons that are done every Wednesday while we all focus on the same habit as a school.

We decided to do our direct lessons on Wednesdays and we call it W.I.G (Wildly Important Goals) Wednesday. The staff wears wigs during our morning meetings to get the students excited about our goals and our direct leadership lessons.

At CCE we spend a lot of time teaching and practicing the 7 habits. While we make sure to teach direct lessons every week, we also focus on integrating the 7 habits and leadership skills into our curriculum each day. Whether it’s talking about how a character in a book we are reading demonstrated being proactive, or recognizing how our founding fathers needed to synergize as they helped to shape our nation, we are always looking for examples of leadership.

Creighton’s Corner has a school mission statement posted throughout the school and in classrooms. Each classroom works together to write their own classroom mission statement. The students recite their class mission statements during Morning Meeting. The students then write their own missions. Every staff member has an accountability partner they check in with weekly to reflect on personal goals. In addition, each class is paired with a “buddy class” to share goals and progress as we achieve our academic and personal goals.
Class missions are displayed outside each door and in our classrooms. Each class works together to write their own mission statements. Teachers and students say their class mission statements together during Morning Meeting to set the tone for each learning day.
Teacher scoreboards are visible in every classroom. Students work with their teachers as accountability partners to take action steps toward our personal mission and goals.
