Groark and his friends are planning a party. One of the friends convinces the others not to invite the new kid in school, citing reasons that ring with classic racist beliefs. But when Groark learns that this friend doesn't even know the new kid, he turns to a group of real elementary school children for a lesson in prejudice. They discuss how people sometimes treat others unfairly because of size, age, gender, race, ethnicity and national origin, and why it's important not to pre-judge people. Groark takes this lesson back to his friends and they decide to include the new kid.

Respect (grades 7-12)
From the ten volume video series In Search of Character
featuring "Dr. Mike" Thomson
Produced in association with Character Counts!

$69.95 (# LW-ISC-2)  Approximately 28 minutes.
This program shows how treating people with respect helps us get along with each other, avoid and resolve conflicts, and create a positive social climate. We see that respectful behavior means treating others with civility and courtesy, accepting personal differences, listening to what others have to say, and refraining from ridiculing, embarrassing or hurting others. And to demonstrate that each of us has a role in creating a respectful climate, we see an inspiring documentary about a biracial teenager’s initiative to promote interracial respect.

Fairness (grades 7-12)
From the ten volume video series In Search of Character
featuring "Dr. Mike" Thomson
Produced in association with Character Counts!

$69.95 (# LW-ISC-4)  Approximately 28 minutes.
Respect for other people is the very foundation of fairness, but often it’s difficult to know what’s fair and what isn’t, or what to do when faced with injustice. This program helps young people understand how to live by the golden rule, what it takes to be a fair and just person, and how much our personal actions do matter. As a stunning example of individual effectiveness, we see the inspiring story of a teenage boy whose action in response to injustice launched a worldwide campaign to bring an end to exploitative child labor.
