Main
Project:
The students will be challenged to achieve honor by completing
rigorous tasks throughout this two week study. They are listed to begin in Week B.
You decide if your students should begin completing these tasks in Week A or Week
B. Native Games
and Handgame to
be used for recess and Project days.
Extension Idea: Have students choose a person
from the church congregation or the neighborhood that they think should be honored.
(Maybe for their Christian joy, encouragement or some form of service.) Have a
plaque made or create a certificate of appreciation and frame it to present to this person
during a church service (or at some other public meeting--like Home and School). A
corsage or boutonniere would also be appropriate. Students can give the speeches,
etc. Giving honor to someone else is a great culminating activity.

Bulletin Board Ideas:
- Honor is what you show
when others turn their backs.
(Michael Robinson)
- Honor is never taken, but
always given. (Michael
Westhoff)
- He who lives without principles dies without honor.

walked in his moccasins for seven suns. Indian Proverb
