Introduction

Integrity means you are honest and truthful in what you say or do. You put honesty, sense of duty, and sound moral principle above all else. When people have integrity, what they think, promise, say and do are identical. They have unshakable character. They have our trust and respect. They also have a good reputation because they are reliable and responsible.

Suggestions for Improvement: Be absolutely honest and truthful at all times. Stand up for what you believe to be right.

How can honesty help you achieve your goals?

How can you demonstrate honesty this week? What might be the outcomes?

Critical Thinking

Consider the following situation on your own: You are working on a project with a group of students and your teacher picked you to be the leader of the group. The other students complained that the teacher plays favorites and that is why they picked you as the leader. You exchange numbers so you can text about the project, but the group texts an offensive meme about the teacher. You ignore the meme and try to keep things positive with the group. However, the vice-principal calls you into their office and asks you if you know who made the meme.

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.
