Higher-Level Thinking Questions: Developing Character
Teachers are understanding of why we should be teaching Character Education but as always, are asked to pull lessons out of their hats. They are asked to not only develop character in students but to develop the means with which to do it! Again, someone at Kagan decided to make teachers' lives a bit easier.
We can preach integrity, honesty, and many other virtues but this book puts these character traits into practice with structures. I recently did a lesson on integrity and honesty and we used the questions from this book in a Mix Pair Discuss as the set to the lesson. Students were then asked to go out and find examples of integrity and lack of integrity. When we charted the results, some of the very same examples covered in the questions in the book were witnessed by students. This must mean that the questions in this book are true to life questions!!!
I would bet that this book would also be a great resource for Sunday School teachers! |
