There’s no doubt that academics are important. But character is more important. Combining the two is perfect. I believed enough in character education that as a homeschooler, I used unit studies based on positive character traits, or virtues.
I found it most effective to use a combination of religion, character-based unit studies emphasizing literature and discovery learning, and Montessori principles and activities.

Using Positive Character Traits, or Virtues, in Unit Studies
As homeschoolers, my family used KONOS unit studies, a Christian curriculum based on character traits, for a number of subjects. During the elementary years, we used KONOS unit studies for science, social studies, art, music, literature, reading, health and safety, and religious education. We all loved KONOS because it’s multi-level, fun, emphasizes character development, and uses a lot of hands-on discovery learning, compatible with Montessori principles. We also enjoyed using the KONOS timelines and timeline characters, at first on a wall and then in the Book of the Centuries when we moved.
We continued to use KONOS in high school as well. During high school, we used KONOS History of the World (which is now in an online format). Here, I’ll be sharing virtues, or character traits, as they relate to the themes used in the KONOs elementary unit studies.
These songs about virtues, or character traits, can be used with any unit study. There are many more unit study products available now, so you might find one that works much better for you. You don’t need to use KONOS to use these ideas, but I’ll include the KONOS themes since they’re what we used. And you can even have themes or mini-units based solely on the virtue. Just choose to use these in whatever way works best for your family or class.
List of Positive Character Traits/Virtues with Unit Studies
Here’s a list of my posts about positive character traits/virtues along with ideas for themes and unit studies. I have a post at Living Montessori Now with lists of all my unit studies there. Those are mainly designed for preschoolers through early elementary, although late elementary is sometimes included. I’ll link to those posts where relevant and will also share themes for KONOS unit studies that these virtues would fit. The virtues are listed in alphabetical order, not the order you’d use them.
Not every resource will be free, although most of them are. You’ll find hundreds and hundreds of free themed printables, songs, and activities organized by character trait.
Note: This list will be updated every month.
