As a 26 year veteran Florida teacher, I have spent the majority of my career teaching middle and high school math. 
In addition to math, I spent four years teaching and reinforcing Sean Covey's The 7 Habits of Highly Effective Teens and The 7 Habits of Happy Kids.

The learner is expected to read the assigned story and complete the accompanying Nearpod lesson. We will cover two habits each week. Each lesson will take approximately 45 minutes to complete. All work is due by Sunday EST of each week, and progress reports will be posted on Tuesdays EST.

No live meetings, and an estimated 1 - 2 hours per week outside of class.

The more involved parents and families are in this particular book study, the better. In order for people, especially children, to become better humans, they must have the support of the people around them.
