π The materials below are supplemental options that schools may or may not utilize in their Be Good People implementation.
Browsing the rest β The vast majority of Be Good People materials (lessons, extensions, worksheets, etc.) are available from the main Be Good People page (simply click a grade band and start browsing).
Day-to-day use β Typically, teachers are not visiting this website every day to access materials. Instead, teachers typically access their materials from the pacing guide or curriculum map that their school/district made a local copy of (see the Sequence page for templates).
π’π PreK: Situation Cards + Skill Mini-Posters
π’π PreK: Situation Cards + Skill Mini-Posters
Teachers have the option of using these two printable resources during instruction.Β
In the second half of the lesson, which involves modeling and guided role play in response to a series of scenarios, the teacher has the option of using a Skill Poster + Situation Cards for the lesson.Β
Referencing these printed materials, rather than the digital slides, can be helpful during this part of the lesson when teachers are typically seated on a carpet while actively modeling the skills and guiding the students in role play.

π’π Elementary: Student Learning Log
In the Be Good People lessons and activities, students encounter learning badges aligned to the 5 competencies + values icons (e.g., respect, kindness, determination, etc.). This Learning Log helps elementary students keep track of which badges and values they're seeing throughout the school year. Teachers can pause at the end of each lesson or activity, prompt students to pull out their Learning Log, and then together the class can color in a coin for each of the learning badges and values they learned about.
Teachers may elect to tie an informal incentive system to this Learning Log (e.g., "for every #__ coins we earn, we'll have a dance party") but we recommend that if this occurs it be kept loose β optional, informal, and teacher-specific. This Learning Log is not designed to operate in place of a school-wide incentive system (i.e., students earning tickets throughout the school day when they demonstrate one of the school-wide expectations).
π’ Secondary: Student Handout
π’ Secondary: Student Handout
All of the Lessons end with some form of knowledge application, and in most cases this involves discussing a few scenarios using a discussion choice board. Teachers can facilitate this discussion in whole group, think-pair-share, or any other discussion format.Β
We find that sometimes students are more open during discussion if they're given an opportunity to jot down a few thoughts prior to discussion (i.e., ink-pair-share). To help teachers facilitate this, we've created an optional Student Handout (two variations). These are generic and can be used across lessons, so it's low prep (i.e., a teacher can keep a stack in a folder and just use them when applicable). These handouts are also linked into the Lesson presentations.
Please note that these are not intended to replace discussion, just to support it.
