誠實與真理。當謊言不斷損害信譽。如何停止謊言！

* I have added an additional video to this course. It is about how our behavior and words affect others. I wanted to add an update to be sure as my students needs change, I am addressing new issues that arise. 

I teach in a positive non-accusatory manner. This helps students become more comfortable in all of my classes. All children are welcome in my classroom!

This class is not just about little white lies. We will discuss why we make the choice to say something that isn't true. What may seem like the easier way out is usually just the beginning of the issue. I will help children understand how repeated lying will change how people react to them and how when we start being honest, we will gain the respect and character that we can be proud of ourselves, and others will appreciate. 

When children see they are not the only ones dealing with an issue, it becomes easier for them to understand it can be changed and how to go about it. Students will not be asked personal questions, this class is for them to gain new tools on how to take a moment before they speak so when they do answer, they can choose the right thing to say, as well as the consequences of not being honest. 

Even though there are no live classes, there will be many opportunities for your child to interact. Not only can they message in the classroom, but they can privately contact me through Outschool as well. To keep students engaged, I will be posting different scenarios  and "what should our character do in this situation" games for further learning opportunities. 

Week 1 Take a moment to think before we speak. It will make a world of difference. 

Week 2 Why did we decide to lie? What is behind my choices. 

Week 3 Will anyone believe me if I don't stop lying?

Week 4 How to rebuild the trust we have lost and start a new relationship without lying. 

We will also cover being a good example, lying to avoid consequences/chores, manipulation, misleading words and why taking the easiest path may not be the right one. 

The videos are shorter than a live class. Your child is welcome to pause, rewatch and take notes. Since this is not a live class with interaction, all of the information can be presented in a shorter time frame. Thus making it more informative and easier for students to sit through. 

If you are interested, below is a link to the books and journals I have published that accompany many of my classes.
