Program Overview
Standards and Outcomes:
Normally a six to eight week unit, although many teachers spread the Hidden Heroes lessons and concepts through the school year, the Our Hidden Heroes social responsibility/character education program reflects learning outcomes from a variety of Integrated Resource Packages including those provided by the BC Ministry of Education.
Our program also reflects the British Columbia Social Responsibility Performance Standards, which set out expectations for student behaviours as they develop their skills in various aspects of social and emotional learning. Each lesson addresses at least two of these performance standards, so teachers in BC can meet those learning outcomes by following the Our Hidden Heroes program. Most lessons also meet a variety of other cross-curricular learning outcomes including social studies, language arts and personal planning.
Further, our program has been designed to fit well with most other provincial and territorial curricula. Currently school districts in B.C., Alberta, Ontario, and western Quebec are using the program.
