Grinch Day got the Connected Ones discussing the meaning of Christmas. One way the students thought they could show their spirit for the season was by giving kindness. We decided to become the "Random Acts of Christmas Kindness Class." We have been sneaking all around the school and community "R.A.C.K. ing" people.
Our first R.A.C.K. was for Mrs. Crum. We gave kind notes to Mrs. Crum. Then, we wrote a little book about how Mrs. Wolverton is a rock star. And, since the weather has been chilly, we gave the lunch aides and cross walk guards some hand warmers. We also delivered surprise candy canes to an intermediate classroom. Plus, we gave as many compliments and smiles as we could!
The children couldn't get enough of the R.A.C.K.ing. They were just full of ideas. So, our last homework assignment before the break was to perform a Random Act of Christmas Kindness. I was amazed with the responses. Thank you parents for supporting this project. The children were so proud of themselves and their kindness. Here are just of few of the wonderful acts of homework kindness.
I gave my neighbor chocolate!
I gave the mailman a cupcake.
I bought a toy at Walmart and donated it to a child. I bought a My Little Pony.
