With all the negativity that we seem to hear every day, we have decided to kick off a “Kindness Project” in the second grade classroom!  Just this morning we shared a story that got us thinking of ways to show kindness to others and the importance of simple, small gestures of kindness.  We also listened to a story called”The Kindness Quilt”  that demonstrated how we are going to recognize out second grade students who show “Random Acts of Kindness”.  There is a link below that shows that same story read aloud.  Tonight students will be asked to complete one piece of out quilt by writing and illustrating one way that they showed kindness at home.  This is their official homework assignment and will be displayed in the hallway as a start for our own Kindness Quilt in the hallway!
