The Character Project

Grade: 4 - 6 Min: 5 Max: 15 (10 seats remaining)

Min Assistants: 1 Max Assistants: 1 (Assistant Max Reached)

Description:

This class is on a 2-year rotation with new traits, people to learn from and activities every other year. What made President Lincoln a great leader? How did Irena Sendler rescue so many children from German-occupied Poland? Along with King David, Queen Esther, Noah, Katherine Johnson and Desmond T. Doss, they all have something in common: strong, Godly character. Building character at a young age sets our children up for success in life. Part history, social studies, and language arts, this fun class will examine the lives of people who exemplify the kind of character traits we want to develop. Honest, consistent, caring, gritty and devoted are just a few traits that we will incorporate into our lives. Join us as we learn how to become a master character builder!

Homework:

Weekly discussion questions and Scripture memorization. I will also send weekly updates containing supplemental information should parents want more during the week.

Special Projects:

Students will have an ongoing project: As they complete each character study, they will fill in mini-booklets that will be added to a lap book which they will use for a final presentation at end of the year. The lap book is a wonderful keepsake for students to have so they can remember all the traits, people, history and Scriptures they have learned.
