Four Ways to Promote Kindness in the Classroom

# data[].attributes.body
"Although it can feel like children often behave in selfish and self-centered ways, they are actually hardwired to be kind!"

1. Model Kindness in the classroom!
2. Give to Others - why not get your class to choose worthy causes to raise money for?
3. Set up a Good Deed Feed at school where students record the kind deeds they've seen others do around the school.
4. Random acts of kindness: Perhaps hosting an It's Cool To Be Kind Week where students are tasked with carrying out an act of kindness in their local community.

"Kindness is a vital life skill that not only grows children’s emotional intelligence but teaches them the importance of looking after others as well as themselves."

Class Dedication at the Beginning of Class 

# data[].attributes.body
At the beginning of each class session, one learner dedicates the class to someone. The specific cue was "Who has helped you along life's journey."

They created a slide at the beginning of the semester and when they are done speaking they post the hardcopy of their slide to our wall under a banner "Who we do it for."

(The slides) https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1NLLKvbeLu4XPjRn8k7UrDUZtJGRI3EN-8mYEx4Q2a00/edit#slide=id.geebb6f05fc_0_0

This practice has gives us insight into deeper individual stories of our class and has helped create community.

This is based on an Edutopia article regarding building community in the class.
