Program areas at Two By Two Character Development

Two by Two has developed research-based, character education curricula based on 21st Century education standards - the skills children need to succeed in work, school and life. Character education is a national movement creating schools and communities that foster ethical, responsible and caring young people by modeling and teaching good character through emphasis on universal values. Two by Twos unique approach to deliver character education is weaving core values throughout daily, academic curricula. Our effective and measurable programming also includes the extraordinary, hands-on learning tool of animals and is based on 21st Century education standards the skills students need to succeed in work, school and life. With these curriculums, children develop pro-social behaviors, helping them grow into empathetic, responsible, and productive citizens. Two by Twos Character Education curricula also compliments other national character organizations. Many programs provide the framework of character education, whereas Two by Two supplies the actual curriculum for teachers to use when building positive relationships. In other words, we provide the hands-on lessons for students and educators. Kindhearted Kids Program The Kindhearted Kids Character Education Program is designed to teach ethics, values, and character formation through an exciting and memorable, multiday education curriculum researched and developed by elementary school teachers. Throughout the Kindhearted Kids Program, children learn to be more empathetic and respectful to all living creatures, which develop pro-social behaviors that help them grow into caring, responsible, and productive citizens. Kindhearted Kids to the Rescue Program Two by Two developed a hands-on curriculum that educates our youth to be organized, responsible family members throughout a natural disaster. With character education as the organizations focus, Kindhearted Kids to the Rescue plunges upper elementary students into a natural disaster driving them to make thoughtful decisions for family members and their family pet. Toolkit of Character The toolkit will provide teachers with cutting edge strategies that infuse positive character traits throughout the day, EVERY DAY! By modeling and discussing what a person of character looks and acts like daily, student achievement will accelerate and children will make the leap from good to extraordinary children. The Toolkits of Character are separated by grade and each grade level has a character focus based on the American School Counselor Associations Standards and Benchmarks.
