Happy New Year! I hope that the New Year is off to a great start for all of you! Things started off well for us in third grade. We spent time this last week discussing our goals for the rest of the school year. One of our discussions was about being kinder and more helpful at our school. The focus at our school is leadership and my students wanted to model great leadership by reaching out to those around them.
One goal that we set for ourselves was to complete 26 random acts of kindness before Spring Break. A big goal, but one that we're ready to face head on. One night this week, students' homework included brainstorming ideas of small random acts we could perform at school. I was so inspired by my students excitement and dedication to this project. Many students came back with typed out lists of their ideas. We talked about our favorite 26 ideas and put them in a jar. We will pull one out each time we have time for a random act.
I will try and post details about each of our random acts. Stay tuned! I'm hoping that my readers will be inspired to complete their own random acts of kindness. It's time that each of us do our part to make a positive impact on the world around us. Miss Mason's class is up for the challenge... are you?
