The Virtues Project: An Educator’s Guide (K-12) is an excellent guide to empower children to lift each other up instead of putting each other down. It contains virtues honored by all cultures and traditions as the best within us and is honored by the United Nations as a model program for children of all cultures. This practical guide, containing 52 virtues, was designed to develop respect, compassion, commitment, and cooperation, (and more!) in children grades K-12. The book offers proven methods for counselors, teachers, caregivers, and youth leaders to create a culture of character in a classroom, school, or a club. This educator’s guide gives academic leaders and other caregivers of children a way to empower children to make moral choices, deal with grief and loss, and resolve problems using their own inner strength. The book includes restorative justice techniques that are easy for teachers at all grade levels to use.
