Academic Honesty

Academic honesty is extremely important in the classroom. As an elementary school teacher I will still need to teach this to my students, however I believe it will focus mostly on the concept of "honesty" in general rather than specifically in academic honesty. Student will need to understand that lying, cheating, copying, etc. are things that are not allowed in the classroom and should not be done out of the classroom either. When teaching this to my students It will be approached as rule as well as something that should be a part of one's life.
