Challenge your students to ponder life and the world around them. Prepare them for crucial tests, improve their reasoning and writing skills, and help them make ethical and effective choices. These mini-posters display aphorisms and quotes — from cute to clever to compelling — against colorful backdrops. Use these thoughts to integrate character into lesson plans by addressing breaking events and encouraging thoughtful writing and discussion. Rotate each week for a new theme. Activity ideas included. Printed on heavy-duty card stock.

This is the secondary-level set, which contains 48 message sheets with these quotes:

1 Our souls are not hungry for fame, comfort, wealth, or power. Those rewards create almost as many problems as they solve.
