Introduction

In this unit, we’ll learn about the character trait of courage. Courage means having the inner strength to stand up for what’s right and even to accept blame when something is your fault. What are some characteristics of courage? How might you be courageous in everyday life?

Critical Thinking

Consider the following situation on your own: You are in a fight with one of your friends. You miss your friend and want to put things behind you, but you aren’t sure how.

What do you do? Try to think of a few different things you could do (positive, negative, and neutral). What might the results of your actions be?

Collaboration

For a small group, each student presents their ideas to the whole class. Provide opportunity for positive feedback from peers or support if they are struggling to think of ideas.

For a larger group, divide students into small groups and have students present their ideas to the small group. Provide opportunity for positive feedback from peers or support if they are struggling to think of ideas.
