Character Education with Science Lessons - Turning Students into Fruit Pots!
- PDF
Description
Finally, a character education curriculum that works!
This resource includes character education lesson plans AND character education activities!
After working a lifetime as a classroom teacher and school administrator, I have seen my share of character education programs. I have been asked, "What is character education?" and "What are the best character education traits to use?" What I learned over the years, is that you cannot simply teach good character.
Good character is something that grows.
Therefore, I have created this resource so you can cultivate good character in your students.
You can read about my experience in this blog.
This resource contains 61 pages of lesson plans, classroom posters, activities, and goal diagrams.
Take your students on the journey that Little Pot goes through to discover its purpose. The vessel discovers that its purpose is to grow fruit for the potter. As they follow the journey that Little Pot goes on to grow fruit, they will mirror each step with something they can do to cultivate their own fruit (or good character).
Students will become fruit pots when they allow their creator to grow fruit through them. This fruit is known as the Fruit of the Spirit. That fruit combines the character education traits of ...
- Love,
- Joy,
- Peace,
- Patience,
- Kindness,
- Goodness,
- Faithfulness,
- and
- Self-Control.
As you teach the science of how strawberries grow, you will be able to gracefully present biblical truths that are involved in growing the fruit of the Spirit.
