Speaking Character and its companion study guide were written by Dr. Earlene Smith, president of the Oklahoma Center for Character Education. Dr. Smith wants to help teachers become comfortable speaking a character language in order to reduce misunderstanding between cultures.
Words like truthfulness, attentiveness, responsibility, loyalty, and punctuality mean different things to different people. And when communication breaks down, learning and relationships suffer.
The Speaking Character book presents the 49 Character First qualities with a character definition and several “sentence starters” to help you integrate the character concept into daily speech.
The Speaking Character Study Guide helps you focus on one word each week, and take a few minutes to do minimum research about the word and its meaning. These words are not new, but sometimes they are seldom used, and thus deserve specific attention.
Check out the Character First Online Library for additional study resources, including word etymologies and practical applications.
