Character Building Day by Day

180 Quick Read-Alouds for Elementary School and Home

Whether to complement a school's existing program or simply to add a character jump start to the day, this book makes it easy to teach character education in a meaningful, manageable way.

180 short fictional stories spotlight the character traits featured most often in today's character education programs – caring, compassion, cooperation, honesty, integrity, responsibility, acceptance, tolerance, and more.

The stories are grouped by trait: 36 traits with five stories for each trait.

Each story features kids in real-life situations, faced with decisions or circumstances that reflect, change, or shape their character. Each is short enough to be read aloud and each ends – talk about it- questions for reflection and discussion.
