Random Acts of Kindness during the Holiday Season

Random Acts of Kindness during the Holiday Season
Holiday & Seasonal, Holidays, Christmas, Preschool, Grade 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, Activities

During this time of year, it's easy for students to get caught up in the receiving part of the Holidays instead of the giving! I love to encourage giving and how good it feels to be the one to bring others happiness. The Random Acts of Kindness Project gets kids excited about helping others and showing them that they care about them. Each year my kids get so much out of this. We begin right after Thanksgiving. I've done it several different ways. Sometimes students work in groups, sometimes they work individually, but my favorite is definitely doing it as a class. It means so much when they deliver sharpened pencils to the class next door, put decorative bookmarks in books at the library, and bring handmade cards to workers at the school. Our school staff is always so appreciative when we recognize them! I included Bingo cards to give students a little reward of their own! When they complete one, they mark it off their bingo card. Along the way as students get Bingo, I reward them with small prizes (lunch in the classroom, pajama day, switch seats for the day!) It adds even more to their excitement about the project .

, Grade 1, 2, Activities

Kindness is such an important character trait that we all would like to see in our own children and our students. In order for children to show kindness they need to be taught what kindness is and how to spread kindness in their words and actions. E veryone wants their students and children to be kind and show kindness in school and at home. At times it can be a difficult task, especially in a world where children are exposed to so much more than years ago. In order to be kind it is necessary to ignite thought patterns that encourage children to think beyond themselves and to think about others. It is almost like stepping into the shoes of others to understand how they might feel. When children read a book, we ask them to imagine how the main character might feel in a certain situation, but in most fictional literature, the characters are not real. So it is important to inspire children to use real life situations. For example, if they see a classmate crying, go over and ask if they are ok. This extensive resource jammed packed with many activities, writing frames, task cards and ideas will support your students and/or children to understand and be aware of ways to spread kindness everyday!
