Good Citizenship (I Am A Good Citizen)
Because there are limited variety or few resources when teaching classroom or character education this year I have come up with read-alouds or scenarios to explain the expected school and classroom behaviors to young children in a friendly manner with some open-ended questioning. The read-alouds are designed to keep the teacher on task. If your school district is like mine, then you will be able to relate to the fast pace that a school year usually begins. I always feel that I do not thoroughly

Gender Stereotypes {in the elementary classroom}
Stereotypes are a sensitive subject these days. The good thing is, most elementary aged students don't know what they are, and aren't basing their friendships off them. Children are so easily influenced, so teaching them about the topic early can help them later on when they come into contact with them.This isn't going to "help" your students pick a side, or tell them what is right or wrong. It is designed to help facilitate open-discussions and guide your lessons for teaching about stereotypes.
