Virtue: A Habit to do the good, give the best of yourself, and be more like God in what you say and do. To tie in with our study of sainthood and the universal call to holiness, I decided to do a little more intentional instruction about the virtues. Visit here for the original graphic organizer we added to our notebooks to start things off. Next up: The Moral Virtues. I have been introducing the kids to each of the moral virtues: prudence, justice, fortitude, and temperance. We have been focusing on one virtue each week. I made a printable for them to add to their Sheen notebooks, which I printed half sized to better fit on a notebook page. Both full size and 2-per-page options to print can be found below. We talked about the virtue and then recorded some practical examples in the section that says "prudence in action." Mindful that growing in holiness, which we are all called to, means growing in virtue, each kid then made a goal related to that virtue to work on for the week. They wrote their goals on post-it notes and then stuck them on this poster on the door. I love this poster- It has gotten a lot of mileage. Simply a piece of posterboard divided into squares that are about 4x4" and marked with the numbers 1-30, it allows the kids to stick a 3x3" post-it note recording their thoughts or questions on a particular topic quickly. I added a page protector at the top so I could easily create a title or question for the top of the poster. This is just is latest use. We also created a class goal for the virtue, decided on by the kids, and we worked on it all week (and it continues to come up in the weeks following). For example, prudence's goal was to choose to be positive when it would be easier to be negative. Justice's goal was to include everyone in conversations and games.They are doing a great job finding the practical in something that can seem very theoretical. Later, I will post the Theological Virtue note pages, as well as classroom encouragement system that we are using to link our study of virtue with our study of the life of Fulton Sheen.
