Character Counts! Week is October 20-26 this year! This is the 31st year of Character Counts! Week … a perfect time to place extra focus on character education.

Free Worldwide Character Counts! Week Resources

Free Worldwide Character Counts! Week Resources

Character Counts! focuses on the six pillars of character as core ethical values. Be sure to check out the free Character Counts! Week resources at the Character Counts! website. The improved Character Counts page is extra easy to navigate this year to find fun ways to be involved. The resources are wonderful for both schools and individuals. Classroom teachers, homeschoolers, and group leaders will find lots of helpful resources.

I love the “Big World Recess” inspiration from Character! Counts. It’s an online magazine focusing on positive character traits of six student athletes from around the world.

Be sure to check out my previous Character Counts! Week posts, too! You’ll find many ideas for activities and lesson plans to use next week and throughout the year.

Free Character Education Songs and Unit Studies

Free Songs about Virtues {Character Education Themes and Unit Studies}Character education was a major focus when I homeschooled my now-adult children, and it continues to be a major focus of mine. Over the years, I’ve published posts with hundreds of free resources. I’ve organized them here based on positive character traits. You can find them through my free songs and character education unit studies post.

Free Character-Based Quotes and Word Art Printables

I like to use character-based quotations to inspire positive character traits. I have lots and lots of best quotes posts that focus on character.

Check out my word art freebies category for many more character-based freebies. You’ll also lots of word-art inspiration at the Bits of Positivity Facebook page and on Pinterest! And much of it is character-based as well. 🙂

And I have lots and lots of character education posts of all kinds here.

Have a wonderful Character Counts! Week!

    Yay – thanks for posting these ‘TeRRiFiCC’ ideas! We’re midway through our week and hosting our Hometown Heroes from the high school at a pep assembly this morning – our favorite day each year!! I’m tickled pink that you’re helping spread the word that character counts!
