Extending the message

We have so many good ideas and lessons on character education and such, but always the challenge of keeping them before the awareness of our students. So I usually try to extend the message, at least a day or two.

Yesterday our PBIS group did an exercise where we matched up word-cards (honesty, loyalty, compassion, ...) with people that we knew, and then talked about how they exemplified those attributes, and whether we had ever told them how much that meant to us.

So this morning I taped those same cards along with that question on my library/lobby door, as well as taping a word to each of the gym overlook-windows; just a little visual-jog to connect yesterday to today ... and maybe to tomorrow.
