Virtues “…A commendable
quality or trait….strength…moral excellence…” This assignment should take
two periods to complete. Period One: Each boy will have a virtue which he will write
about and reflect upon.
Look up your virtue with http://www.thefreedictionary.com/,
and take some notes on an AlphaSmart. Try to
re-write the definition so that a 2nd grade boy may understand it. Next TYPE the questions below into the AlphaSmart. Once the questions are typed we will go outside as a class to find your virtue. Each student will sit down under the virtue they have selected and use the AlphaSmart to TYPE the answers to the questions. What does this virtue mean to me? How have I demonstrated this virtue in the past? How will I demonstrate this virtue in the future? Why should other students want to possess this virtue? What do you think about having this virtue on our Walk
of Virtues? What GOOD DECISION, skills do you need to use to demonstrate this virtue? Please EXPLAIN your answers. What VALUE MEDALS are connected to the virtue you have selected? Make sure to give real-life EXAMPLES to EXPLAIN your answers. As you are writing, Mr.
Brown will come by to take your picture. Tuck your shirt in and smile. This
