PEACE FOR KIDS CURRICULUM
This year at Pioneer Elementary we are using a new school-wide PEACE CURRICULUM program with all students The PEACE program, is a social intelligence program designed to teach social skills and character education. Each month has a theme lesson as well as two character traits. The lessons are being taught in the classroom; the school counselor teaches one lesson and the classroom teacher teaches one or two lessons each month.. The lessons have classroom activity components as well as a school-home link page to allow for the continuing of learning to happen at home.
CHARACTER EDUCATION AND SOCIAL SKILLS:
Character Education is a time when we work with students on their beginning understanding of morals and ethics using 14 character traits. Social skill instruction allows for students to receive actual training and practice of basic social skills needed for interpersonal relationships and success in school.
14 CHARACTER TRAITS:
· Goal Setting * Responsibility · Respect *Gratitude · Service *Caring · Humanity *Courage
· Honesty *Cooperation · Perseverance *Patience · Integrity * Self-Esteem
All of the Character Traits posters are hanging in the hall near the counselor’s office to highlight for students the traits we are learning.
