We talked about Martin Luther King, Jr. this week, and we learned that Dr. King had a dream where everyone would be kind, helpful, and respectful of others. We have begun a special project to celebrate his birthday, which was January 15th.
From Dr. King’s Birthday until our Valentine’s Day party,
we are going to see if we can do 100 acts of kindness.
Our rule is that you cannot report your own act of kindness; someone else has to report something nice that you did for them. At school, children are going to be watching one another to look for those acts of kindness. If someone helps you find your lost crayon, that’s an act of kindness to report. If you fall
and someone helps you up and checks to be sure you’re OK,
that’s an act of kindness too.
We want to families to participate too. For example, if your child helps you fold clothes, carries out the trash without even being asked, or does an especially nice thing for you, please write a note and tell us about it. If you as a family do an act of kindness, such as service projects in our community, write and share that too. We are looking for those loving things that warm your heart. Share them with us!
We are ready to start now, so help us watch for those special acts of kindness. Thanks for your help and participation!
