Honesty+and+Integrity

=Honesty and Integrity=

Erika Stoye __Honesty-__ Students were to write to me about what is meant to be honest by writing about a time they were honest and a time they told a lie (by writing, I mean pictures and conferencing with students). I am looking for expressions on the face and the story they told.

3.0- They could tell about a time they told the truth and the time they told a lie and how they felt about each.

2.5- Able to tell either a truth or lie without assistance

2.0- Able to tell the difference between a truth and a lie, but not able to tell about a personal experience.

1.5- Able to identify either a truth or a lie, but not both or needs help with one.

1.0- Needs help identifying both a truth and a lie.

.5- Needs substantial assistance identifying a truth and a lie.

0- Even with help, student is unsuccessful.

__Honesty Pledge-__ We began by talking about honesty. What it means to be honest, why we are honest, how we feel when we are honest and what happens when we are not honest. At the end of the lesson, the students made a pledge to me about three ways they were going to be honest. What they would do at school.

3.5- Able to state more than 2 ways to be honest at school.

3.0- Able to state at least 2 they were going to be honest at school

2.5- Able to state 1 way to be honest at school

2.0- Given examples, students can identify at least 2 ways to be honest

1.5- Given examples, students can only identify one way to be honest at school

1.0- Given examples, students need help identifying situations where students were honest.

.5- Even with help and examples, students are only able to identify 1 situation of honesty

0- Even with help, student is unsuccessful

__Whoops, It Wasn’t Me-__ We read the story and then the students were given a page divided in half with truth on one side and lie on the other. Students were to draw/ write about the truth and lie that Lola told.

This is a 2.0 assessment since I am assessing whether students can discriminate the difference between a truth and lie.

2.5 Student goes beyond and is able to show the feelings and detailed situations

2.0- Student is able to show the truth and lie from the story.

1.5 Able to correctly identify either a truth or a lie, but not both

1.0 Needs help identifying a truth or a lie

.5 Needs help with both a truth and a lie

0- Even with help, student is unsuccessful

__Jamaica’s Find-__ (This story is found in Harcourt J ) After we read the story, students were given a sheet to record the truth and lie on. They were to draw and write what Jamaica did that was a lie and what was the truth and draw the corresponding feelings on Jamaica (do they really understand how a lie impacts us?) As they worked, I went around and conferenced with any students who I couldn’t make out their picture.

This is only a level 2.0 since they are identifying the difference, not applying it to their life.

2.0- Accurately identifies the truth and lie with correct feelings represented.

1.5- 1 minor error (not able to tell feelings associated or unable to tell the lie)

1.0- Unable to identify the lie and the truth without help. Given choices, they are able to correctly choose the truth, lie and corresponding feelings.

.5- needs substantial help even with given choices

0- Even with help, student is unsuccessful.
