Start your year off the right way by letting your students know your expectations. The following lessons are based on the five Lifelong Guidelines – Truth, Trustworthiness, Active Listening, No Put Downs and Personal Best. They contain engaging and fun activities centering on these guidelines as you stress their importance in your classroom.
A GREAT resource to purchase for your classroom is Jeff Pedersen’s CD, Spread Your Wings. It contains songs about these five Lifelong Guidelines that you can play for your class along with each lesson. Here is a link to purchase his CD: http://www.books4educ.com/advanced_search_result.php?keywords=Spread+Your+Wings&osCsid=678ade38f14954aa36b2ef30ccdac0a7

I am addicted! Your site compiles so much information! I teach a self-contained exceptional children’s class for grades K-3, and always feel bogged down with targeting the different grade levels. Thank you for giving me inspiration and a “one-stop shopping” resource for ideas!
Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing guys. Great post.
Your sight is amazing! I’m sitting in my clasroom after summer school. I know I should go home but I can’t stop looking at all your great lessons and ideas.
Love your website. The link to purchase the CD shows it is no longer available. I have googled and searched every where but can’t find it. Any ideas?
Sorry, Lisa. These were created about a year ago and the link worked then. Thanks for letting us know. We will take a look around and e-mail you if we find anything. LOVE Jeff Pedersen and his songs! Hope we can find it for you!
I use to be part of a “move forward” kind of district and now I’m a lost guppy. I am feeling pretty hopeful now that I found this, thanks so much for sharing
