DESCRIPTION OF PUBLICATIONS:
| Changing Lives Character Curriculum was written and developed by an innovative core team of teachers, coaches, principals and administrators. Mark1 offers two categories of Character Education curriculum: Teaching to Change Lives and Coaching to Change Lives. Teaching to Change Lives is a comprehensive K-12 curriculum that can be easily incorporated into any educational atmosphere with minimal to no teacher preparation. The curriculum is story driven and interaction based with a 36-week lesson plan format. The teacher's manual integrates the teaching of basic universal character values, while the student workbooks and planners enhance the character development on a daily basis. Changing Lives moves beyond awareness by connecting character values to life skills. Coaching to Change Lives offers character-building concepts to extracurricular activities. Due to time constraints of the athletic arena, the lessons within the coaches’ manual are simple with no preparation time involved. The athlete workbooks then enhance the story-based coaches' manual with thought provoking, self-awareness questions. In addition to teaching and coaching curriculums, Changing Lives also produces a variety of motivational audio/CDs and video/DVDs, along with posters, calendars, brochures, and fundraising materials.
