Words Hurt And You Can't Take Them Back - Character Education / Graffiti


How do you incorporate character education into your art curriculum? I use graffiti.

Words Hurt And You Can't Take Them Back - Character Education
We are all walking the line, you are either with your mind or you are with life. You have a choice in every second to be or not to be. The truth of life has been revealed and it can and will transform mankind and the world. Nothing could be more important or worthwhile...So, how do you walk the line? This aspect of your life reveals your character for the good or the bad.
