List of Moral Values for Lesson Planning

List of Moral Values for Lesson Planning

   "These few days have been a blur... because things are happening so fast!

   I have lots to blog about, but because I'm short of time, I'll just post this list of moral values. It's useful for teachers and trainees alike in planning lessons as in every lesson plan, you must always include at least one moral value to accompany your lesson content! This is from the ministry, there's a short introduction to it, but I don't have it now- will post when I find it!

   Please understand that I am not plagiarizing or anything! Hehe. Nor am I posting this just for the mere sake of posting. I just think this would be good for future teachers to know."
