FA: I am intentional when I recognize a student for demonstrating a character trait through providing them with a husky buck and tell them why they earned it. This positive reinforcement will potentially encourage the student to continue that positive behavior. #edchatTCS

[Dr. Catherine Finkley @cfinkley_]

A4: Students replicate the behavior that is modeled for them. It is important to set a good example for students to follow. #edchatTCS

[Dr. Catherine Finkley @cfinkley_]

A2: Honesty, Perseverance, and Respect are 3 core character skills to possess. #edchatTCS

[Dr. Catherine Finkley @cfinkley_]

A1: This means modeling good character for students and finding organic opportunities to reinforce the importance of ethical decision making skills. #edchatTCS
