  Honor Code Words:

Honorable

I looked for several examples to explain graffiti. I found many resources on social media. The kids were instructed to pick a word and illustrate it in a graffiti way. This was a wonderful way for me to work in school wide curriculum of Character Education and discussing our new Honor Code.
