Learning About Character in School: Help Me Make a Survey

Throughout The Giver, Jonas begins to learn about different cultures. The first culture is his current: decisions are made for you based off someone else's experiences and learned wisdom. A system is already in place to make your life smooth and successful. The second culture Jonas begins to learn about is much like ours today. He experiences both extreme positive and negative memories and feelings, finding himself drawn to the "highs" and "lows" which are aligned.

We've taken several class votes about which culture is best and which we would prefer to live in. Most of the grade has consistently preferred a community where we work together as a team to help one another, gain wisdom from our positive and negative experiences, and seek our unique individuality in our world.

Here's my question to you: How can I help you reach your full social, emotional, and academic potential?

I want to make a survey to ask you questions about building character, but I don't know where to start. Please comment below one or more questions you'd like me to ask in the survey. The survey will be anonymous, but we will compare everyone's answers.

Here are sample questions (I am using these so don't write them!):
1. How do you act when you are angry?
2. What is your best organization strategy?
3. How do you calm yourself down?
4. What type of activities do you want to do to learn about building character?
