Character Education is an important part of every education program. One important character trait to teach children is that of being responsible. It is so important for children to learn how to be responsible at an early age. This product is designed to help students from Pre-School-5th grade learn and practice being responsible. You can use this product either individually, with a group, or with the whole class. This product includes: Responsibility Poster Defines what it means to be responsible. I recommend reviewing this poster with students when you begin your lesson on responsibility. 24 Behavior Sort Cards I recommend printing these cards out on heavy cardstock or laminating them to make them more durable. Use these cards to play the behavior sort game in which children group behaviors based on whether or not they are responsible or irresponsible. Responsibility Social Story w/ discussion questions (In color and B/W) 20 Responsibility Task Cards I recommend cutting these cards out, punching a hole in the upper left corner, and inserting the cards unto a ring (similar to a key chain ring). You can use the task cards for group discussions or you can give students the task card answer sheet so they can complete the task cards individually. 6 Responsibility Worksheets* *Worksheets Forgetful Freddy Responsibility Sort Responsibility Word Search Showing Responsibility At Home, School, and With Friends Responsibility Acrostic Poem Responsibility Vocabulary Match If you like this product, you may also like these character education products: Character Education RESPECT Character Education TRUSTWORTHINESS Please follow my store for future product launches and freebies.

We have an old Hungarian tradition, that I remember from childhood, that my grandmother used to make, at least once a week called "túrós tészta (csusza)"...cottage cheese noodles! My mom used to make it, and my aunt, and sister, as well. The only difference is that my mom would make it with homemade noodles, and use fresh "farmers cottage cheese" and farmers sour cream, and real bacon, which could be considered "organic" bacon without "nitrates" added that we could actually buy these days, in Whole Foods Market. Now, I don't have a step-by-step directions for this delicious and satisfying dish, that you can serve, with or without the crispy bacon bits, if you want it meatless...but oh, my! those organic uncured crispy bacon bits really, really add some extra flavor. Hungarian Cottage Cheese Noodles hand me down "oral" recipe from my mom 1 lb. wide egg noodles 1lb. small curd cottage cheese, or farmer cheese (dry cottage cheese "Friendship" brand) 1 lb. sour cream 1/4 lb unsalted butter or margarine salt and pepper to taste 4 slices of bacon (I used organic uncured) Boil noodles till done, set aside. Cook bacon till crispy. Set aside on double paper towel to soak up the excess grease, and chop coarse. Set aside. Spray a casserole with cooking spray. As soon as you drain the pasta, put it back into the pot, add the butter or margarine, half of the cottage cheese, half the amount of the sour cream, and mix together. (also, you can fold in half the chopped bacon.) Top with the rest of the bacon, and bake in a 350 degree F. pre-heated oven for about 25-35 minutes, till it gets nice and crispy on the top. To serve, spoon extra cottage cheese and a spoon of sour cream, and serve...Serves 4-6 note: this is so delicious, even the little ones love this dish, and look forward to having this. My daughter and I make this this at least once a week! ...and now, for the Book Giveaway! Signed by the author!

We are a Leader In Me School and talk a lot about using the 7 Habits of Happy Kids in our everyday lives. I love the idea of encouraging kids to act as leaders in the classroom and beyond. What I have noticed, however, is that sometimes "leadership" comes off as "bossypants" and that is not the route we want to take! I know you've probably heard of Sheryl Sandberg (of Facebook fame) and her campaign to end the word "bossy" (read or listen to an NPR story HERE), but I was hesitant to come straight out and use that word in our class. Instead, I wanted them to think on terms of "boss" and "leader" to recognize the differences between the two and to think about their own language choices in the classroom, in small groups, on their sports teams, and more. We first looked at this picture and talked about what we noticed: (source) This led to some discussion about leadership versus boss behavior. While the kids were discussing, I was passing out example cards to their table spots. Before I dismissed them, I shared this leadership quote from John Quincy Adams: They were then given instructions about our activity. I had printed example cards on two colors: blue for boss and green for leader (although they didn't know that yet) and they needed to read their card and find someone with an opposite color card and opposite example (good time to incorporate the word antonym, too!). I dismissed them to their tables and first had them converse with students in their table group to ensure they understood the word or phrase on their card. When they gave me the thumbs up, I told them to find their match and them meet to discuss why they went together and be able to give examples. We then began assembling our Anchor Chart. Each pair would come to the front of the class and would explain which card was descriptive of a "boss" and which was descriptive of a "leader" and why. They gave examples and I elicited a lot of help from the classroom for additional examples and language that both a boss and leader may use during that example. I would tape the cards to the Anchor Chart and we continued through each pair. There were two groups of three (with two leaders to one boss) and that worked out perfectly with my class (definitely feel free to adjust if you have lower numbers). Our completed anchor chart looked like: It was so powerful to see how often kids may think they are helping, but instead find themselves on the "boss" side of the chart instead of the "leader." I know several of the examples are repetitive, but we really talked through these and used examples from our own lives to recount when using "leader" words and language set us up for success. I also explained the "me vs. you" mentality of bosses versus the "we and us" mentality of leaders. Overall, it was a very powerful lesson and I look forward to referring back to this Anchor Chart this year, especially when "bossypants" behavior leads to conflict. I think these concrete examples can help guide the naturally strong leaders in my class to make better language decisions that can help grow them as leaders and really inspire others, just like the Adams quote! If you'd like a copy of these cards and quote, you can download this as a *freebie* HERE. How do you address bossy vs. leader behavior in your class? Share in the comments, I would love to build on this lesson!

There is no place like the internet. Especially if you are more on the introverted side. Since the beginning of time, extroverts have been put on a pedestal for being more social, outgoing, and better at life. But a lot has changed since the use of the internet boomed. Online friendships, communities, and even shopping are the new normal. The internet has provided a safe space for introverts to express themselves and connect with others without having face-to-face interactions.
This resource provides practice in saying, sorting, spelling and writing words containing "ough". ! PLEASE NOTE: This resource was written in Australia, and pronunciations are correct for Australian and UK English. American English pronunciations may differ, and the resource is not recommended for students who use American pronunciations. 30 different "ough" words are included, and the set can be used in numerous ways. For example, words may be cut out and sorted by students into groups of same sounds. Students could mark words of the same sound in the list with coloured highlighters, one for each sound. Words may also be copied from the list into the table of headings which relate to the 6 different sounds of "ough". The list may also be used for Look-Say-Cover-Write-Check, and for spelling tests. The resource includes both colour and black-and-white word lists, answer sheet for sorting words by sound, and a blank page for writing dictionary meanings. In this series, I have also made resources for the "eigh" words, "augh" words, and "or" sound words too: https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/EIGH-Words-Sorting-Them-Out-Middle-Primary-Phonics-and-Spelling-Resource-2828379 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/AUGH-Words-Sorting-Them-Out-Middle-Primary-Phonics-and-Spelling-Resource-2828088 https://www.teacherspayteachers.com/Product/Words-with-the-OR-Sound-Middle-Primary-Phonics-and-Spelling-Resource-2843020

A series of futuristic pictures by Jean-Marc Côté and other artists issued in France in 1899, 1900, 1901 and 1910. Originally in the form of paper cards enclosed in cigarette/cigar boxes and, later, as postcards, the images depicted the world as it was imagined to be like in the then distant year of 2000. As is so often the case their predictions fell some way off the mark, failing to go far enough in thinking outside the confines of their current technological milieu (hence the ubiquity of propellors, not to mention the distinctly 19th-century dress).
