Story time!
My son’s first grade class recently started this unit of character lessons, in which they tell stories (morality tales I believe is the technical term) that teach a lesson. It’s been such a great thing in little Earl’s life, he comes home saying “Mommy, I learned today that it’s bad when you don’t share!” or things like that. Mrs. Henderson, his teacher said she found the idea online at site that has downloadable character education lesson plans and that’s where she got the idea for an interactive story for 30 minutes everyday where the kids journey with the story and learn the lesson that the story’s hero learns!
