The other day, my teens were having a dispute. Unkind words were being thrown back and forth like ping pong balls. My otherwise amiable children were not being so amiable. I was not happy. I decided it was time to enlighten them on the importance of thinking before speaking, a valuable asset in the adult world. I remembered seeing posters and images on the internet which said, "Before you speak: THINK." THINK is an acronym for "Is it True? Is it Helpful? Is it Inspiring? Is it Necessary? Is it Kind?" That was just what I needed so I got to work to make my own poster for our homeschool room. I opened up InDesign. I chose a cat font since my daughters love cats. I used it for the word, "THINK" and selected a different font for the rest of the poster. I laid out all of the text in various text boxes. When I finished, I printed it off and hung it up in plain view. My daughters got the point. The unpleasant word usage has been reduced. If it starts to rear its ugly head again, I just point to the poster. Thank you, internet. I thought that you might also like to have a THINK poster, so I created some free printables using a variety of fonts. (I love fonts!) Here they are.
