As I was sitting in my classroom during my plan time today, my sweet third graders came in with the biggest grins on their faces. Of course, I was curious about their demeanor. Something had to be up! My hunch was right...those cute little third graders had cooked up a R.A.K. with the help of wonderful coworker. I was so proud of them for being proactive and taking such ownership with this project. Then I found out that this R.A.K "victim" was me!!
They presented me with a framed wordle. Each of my students had thought of a word to describe me. Mrs. Lang then took these words and created a wordle that she framed for me! I can't wait to hang this up where I can see it everyday. She had one more little surprise for me too! She blessed me with a new journal. Not just any journal though! It was filled with encouraging notes, quotes, and scripture. I definitely got a little teary eyed today.
I can now tell you from personal experience that small Random Acts of Kindness make a HUGE impact on people's lives! The smile on my face is not disappearing anytime soon :) Right now, I guess my kids have successfully completed 5 Random Acts of Kindness...and they didn't even need my help!
