01

የግብረ ገብ ምሉዕነት

ValueMeaning
HonestyTelling only the truth whatever the outcome
ResponsibilityAccepting responsibility for one's own decisions, whether the outcome is good or bad
ConsistencyShowing the same behaviour when alone and when with others
CourageThe inner ability to act on what one believes is right
EmpathyUnderstanding others' feelings by placing oneself in their position

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks you to define one of the five core values of moral integrity or to match a value to its meaning.

Watch out

Empathy means understanding another person's feelings by placing yourself in their position. It is not the same as humility, which means seeing yourself as no greater than others.

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks whether a person who behaves well in one setting, such as obeying parents or being watched by teachers, can be called morally whole.

Watch out

A student who cheats in an exam but obeys parents at home is not morally whole. Integrity must show the same way whether or not others see, so do not award it for good behaviour in only one setting.

02

ለህግ ተገዥነት

ConsequenceWhat the chapter says
Lack of peaceWhen law is not respected, conflict and unrest follow, and peace needs everyone's participation.
Violation of human rightsWhen laws are not applied, life, freedom and property are not protected, and people force their own interests.
CorruptionOfficials use their power to benefit themselves instead of serving the people.
Drug addictionPeople lose control over legal and illegal medicine, and harm their mind and body.
Illegal child traffickingChildren are placed in forced labour or sexual exploitation and lose their basic rights.
Tax evasionGovernment revenue falls, so the services it provides to citizens are affected.
Loss of freedomThose who break the law are punished, and may be kept in prison and lose their freedom.
Lack of justiceWithout law, an offender does not receive a punishment proportionate to the offence.

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks for the negative effects of not being law-abiding, or asks you to name a consequence and explain how it arises.

Watch out

Link each consequence to the breach that causes it, for example tax evasion reduces government revenue. Listing the names alone does not earn the marks.

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks whether not knowing a law excuses a person from punishment, as in the story of Tamru.

Watch out

Not knowing the law is not a defence. The chapter says someone who breaks a law without knowing it is as guilty as someone who breaks it knowingly. Also, laws are not chosen by preference: they must be followed by everyone at the same time, not only when convenient.

03

መልካም ባህሪ

When you use it

Use this when a question asks what respect means or why respect matters.

Watch out

Respect is not expected from one side only. A student who cannot respect classmates cannot expect to receive respect from them.

Drafted from Grade 6 Moral Education, pages 27-45, then checked twice before it went up

TraitMeaning
IntegrityHolds strong moral principles and follows the truth.
HonestySpeaks the truth and avoids lying, cheating and stealing.
TrustworthinessCan be trusted, and guides actions and decisions with trust.
AccountabilityTakes responsibility for actions and their results, and explains them.
Self-controlControls unnecessary inner pressure, feelings and desires.

When you use it

Use this when a question asks you to name or explain the traits of a person with good character.

Drafted from Grade 6 Moral Education, pages 27-45, then checked twice before it went up

When you use it

Use this when a question asks how good character is formed or how it can be developed.

04

በማህበራዊ-ኢኮኖሚተሳትፎማደረግ

When you use it

Reach for this when asked to classify an activity as economic, social-economic or neither, such as religious, charity, patriotic or leisure activities.

Watch out

Religious, charity, patriotic and leisure activities are NOT economic activities. Volunteer service must also be free: it must not be done for profit, reward or gain for a private person, a company or the government.

Drafted from Grade 6 Moral Education, pages 46-58, then checked twice before it went up

When you use it

Reach for this when defining saving or when asked about the benefits of saving.

Watch out

Saving means using money, time and property wisely and keeping them for future use. It does not mean refusing to spend on what life needs. Saving means not wasting money, time and resources.

When you use it

Reach for this when asked why citizens pay tax, or what happens when tax is not paid.

Watch out

Give the purpose as strengthening the government's finances, which pay for public services such as roads, electricity, health, education and defence. Do not describe tax as optional: every person who earns income has a duty to pay it.

05

የሀገር ወዳድነት

TermMeaning
HeroA person who has earned admiration through a brave act or special skill.
PrideA feeling of self-respect and wanting to be respected by others.
SacrificeGiving up something necessary in order to achieve something more important.
DesireSomething people would enjoy having, learning or doing.

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks you to define hero, pride, sacrifice or desire as they are used in this chapter.

Drafted from Grade 6 Moral Education, pages 59-68, then checked twice before it went up

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks what patriotism means or how a citizen can show it.

Watch out

Do not reduce patriotism to fighting enemies in war. The chapter gives paying tax, planting trees and working hard in one's profession as patriotic acts. Opposing a government does not by itself make a person unpatriotic.

Drafted from Grade 6 Moral Education, pages 59-68, then checked twice before it went up

When you use it

Reach for this when asked why paying tax is an act of patriotism, or what happens when people report less income than they earn.

Watch out

Under-reporting income is dishonest, and the chapter links it to the state losing tax revenue and being unable to provide services. Talking about loving the country is not enough: Ato Berihun speaks of his love for Ethiopia, but his actions do not show it.

06

ሰላምና መተባበር

When you use it

Reach for this when a question asks who is responsible for keeping peace, or whether peace depends only on government officials.

Watch out

Police, judges and soldiers carry a heavy responsibility for keeping peace, but the chapter says every social group must play a key role. Peace is not secured by the efforts of a few people; it is secured when everyone carries out their responsibility. Answering that peace can be guaranteed by government officials alone is wrong.

AgreementA society agrees when it can live together peacefully, helping and supporting one another despite differences in language, religion and culture.
PatienceStaying calm when a problem comes, and weighing the good and bad results of an action before deciding.
SharingUsing things together with other people, which teaches fairness and builds friendships.
DialogueTalking with other people, which helps us understand their views.
Non-violenceLiving without disorder or violence, since what happens in the community affects everyone's life.

When you use it

Reach for this when asked to define respect, agreement, patience, sharing, dialogue or non-violence as peaceful behaviour.

IndividualPersonal peace comes when people are freed from worry and fear.
CommunityPeace arises in a community when people work together instead of quarrelling.
InternationalWorld peace is created when countries stop fighting each other.

When you use it

Use this when a question asks you to name or describe the levels of peace in this chapter.

Questions students ask

What do the Grade 6 Moral Education cards cover?
16 cards across 6 chapters of the national textbook: የግብረ ገብ ምሉዕነት, ለህግ ተገዥነት, መልካም ባህሪ, በማህበራዊ-ኢኮኖሚተሳትፎማደረግ, የሀገር ወዳድነት and ሰላምና መተባበር. You can take any chapter one card at a time on the page itself.
Do these help with the Grade 6 national exam?
Yes. Grade 6 sits a national exam, and these are the Moral Education rules and formulas it expects you to know. Past papers with a worked answer behind every question are on the same site, also free.
Where do these cards come from?
They are drafted from Grade 6 Moral Education, the Ministry of Education textbook for this grade. A second pass that cannot see the chapter then re-derives every formula, constant and table row, and anything it cannot confirm is held back instead of published.
Is this free?
Yes. Every card here is free to read and the printable sheet is free to download. Neither needs an account.
When was this last checked?
12 October 2026. Cards arrive chapter by chapter, and the line under each one says when that card was last read through.

Temari turns these cards into practice questions and marks them as you go, with an AI tutor to explain anything that did not land.
