Tattling Vs. Reporting


Students enjoyed reading A Bad Case of Tattle Tongue by Julia Cook. The students were able to learn the difference between tattling and reporting through a variety of Character Centers. The best way for the students to learn is to have discussions with each other and communicate their reasoning. Look at the pictures below to see our students in action as they learn about tattling and reporting.

The Tattle Prince taught the following Tattling Rules:

1. Be a Danger Ranger.
You must tell someone if an animal or person is in danger. Remember your radKIDS rules too. Keep telling until someone does something to help the situation.

2. Be a Problem Solver.
If it's a small problem, try to find ways to solve the problem yourself.

3. NOW or NOT NOW problem.
Can the problem be fixed later?

4. M.Y.O.B. (Mind your own beeswax!)
If the problem doesn't involve you and nobody is in danger, do not tattle.
