CHARACTER TRAIT #1; RESPECTFUL

Our lesson on RESPECTFUL was both informing and enjoyable. Students got the opportunity to be of service to others. In response to the question, "DOES PICKING UP OTHER PEOPLE'S TRASH MAKE YOU FEEL DIFFERENTLY ABOUT LITTERING?" One paper was chosen to express the general feelings of the class:

It was kind of fun to help other people. It makes me feel better about myself. I love to help in any way I can .
It was fun going to the classes to pick up trash. I liked it and I want to do it again. I love to help and I will always help people who need help.
