Synopsis

In this title, character building takes on a whole new dimension with lessons grounded in fascinating facts and true stories from nature. This flexible resource combines character education with analogies to powerful stories from nature. The heart of each of the book's 25 lessons is an engaging story, written for kids, describing a particular animal or plant and its distinctive qualities. Busy classroom teachers will like this book's accessibility and flexibility. Kids can read a story individually or in groups, or follow along as the teacher reads it aloud. Accompanying each story, teachers will find several activities that further investigate animals or plants and the connections between their qualities and human behaviors. Every lesson examines several main character traits, providing starting points and sample questions for discussing and exploring analogies between events in nature and human acts of character. Also included is a CD-ROM containing all of the book's reproducible forms, plus one bonus lesson.
