| The Virtues Project surrounds everything we do.
It offers a simple moral structure which teachers and parents can model
and within which children build character and self-esteem.
It is no substitute for love, hugs, and family giggles. It is a
tool for parents and teachers to use in guiding and teaching
children.
Positive role modeling of these virtues is key to
character development in children. The language of this project
encourages children to find the virtues within themselves and use them
as they interact with their world.
As they work together, adults and children are asked to explore and demonstrate:
| |
|
Patience |
|
|
|
Generosity |
|
|
|
Assertiveness |
|
|
| |
|

Honesty |

|
Flexibility |
|
|

|
Gentleness |

|
Trust |
|

These are just a few of the virtues that build strong character.
