I think integrating the traits into your morning meeting and/or caring kid meeting is a great place to start with some quick discussion and examples.
Lining up with a character chant is a fun way to incorporate the traits into something you already have to do. I call mine character camp and we march a chant to the tune of "I don't know, but I've been told." We have a motion for each trait, so I might say line up showing me compassion and the students line up giving themselves a big hug.
