Let "Character Ed," the friendly bee, help you and your school staff to provide a highly motivational, comprehensive character education for your elementary school. Each month, Ed draws one of nine "Bee Words" from the "Honey Pot." He helps children understand the word and how this term is important to good character. Then, each concept is further explored through "Buzz Words" and a wide variety of items, many of which are reproducible. (Grades K-5) Betts H.
