Introduction
All teachers know that
when parents are involved with their child's education,
their child is more successful. It is to this end that
the Character Education at Home (CEAH) program
was designed. CEAH helps connect families to the learning
that is taking place at school.
The program is designed
using one Teacher Kit and nine Parent Kits, one for
each month of the school year. The concept is to send
the kit home to the parents, have the parents read a
story, discuss the questions with their children and
complete some activities that reference the character
trait of the month.
After completing the
activities, the child cuts out a Puzzle Piece that is
printed on card stock from the Parent Kit, has his or
her parent write a short message stating what the child
learned about the character trait that month, and returns
the Puzzle Piece to school to put on his or her Student
Puzzle Sheet.
