Integrity (Honesty and Lying)
This class meeting we will be focussing on honesty and lying. Middle school is a difficult age where students are finding their way to what kind of people they want to be. During this class meeting we will engage in conversation of what makes us want to lie, how we feel when we lie, and ultimately what kind of people we want to be and help others to be as well. We will begin this discussion with a short video highlighting actions of integrity and the "pay it forward" message of human kindness. Then we will dive into a team building activity with prompting questions dealing with our theme. This will lead us into a whole class discussion on how our values now will shape what type of people we become. Lastly, we will end our class meeting with a quick write to solidify what each student has learned from this lesson and what they will take away from this lesson.
