T.R.U.E. Examples
28 Prompts for Discussing Courage, Loyalty, Justice, Respect, Hope,
Honesty, and Love
T.R.U.E. Examples is a set of 28 instructional visuals (8.5" x 11") that enable
teachers to make an easy transition from story reading to discussion. The aim is
to relate the attribute to the children's own lives. There are four main
concepts for each of the seven attributes. Each concept is presented as a
vibrant, diverse, and stimulating discussion prompt. The visual prompts may be
used by the teacher to further explain the attributes, or by the student.
T.R.U.E. Examples discussion prompts were classroom tested and found to help:
- Inititiate a discussion after the story is read.
- Make the attributes more applicable to children's lives.
- Enhance awareness of the attributes in everyday situations.
- Check for understanding of how the attribute works in real life.
