Elementary School

WiseSkills helps elementary schools use a common language of character by focusing on schoolwide Character Themes and creating a culture where all educators model, teach, and reinforce positive life choices. Throughout the year, each classroom teacher chooses from the hundreds of lessons and activities in the WiseWords Curriculum (Grades K-2) and the WiseQuotes Curriculum (Grades 3-5) that will work best with their students, such as Start-of-the-Day discussions, role-plays, multicultural quotations, across-the-curriculum activities, journal writing, and service experiences. The Elementary School Implementation Kt provides training videos and additional resources for effective schoolwide implementation. WiseSkills can be used in conjunction with Character Counts! to teach the Six Pillars of Character.

The Curriculum License provides permanent duplication rights for all of the materials in the elementary curricula.

(Multiple-Site Licenses are available.) The Curriculum License includes:
 
• Permanent Duplication Rights
