Random Acts of Kindness

This week I have decided my 3rd graders will do a service type project for Valentine's Day. I saw something like this on Pinterest that was created for a youth group or private school setting. I changed it so that my public school students could complete the activity. If you click on the picture you should be able to download the file.

Achievement Badges

Thanks to Pinterest I found this really cute idea. I can't find my original pin so I can't give credit to who thought of it!
Today I created badges for each teacher on our grade level. When a student reaches a goal, whether it be behaviorally or academically, their teacher can give them the badge for the day. The badge encourages students and staff to enquire about the achievement. We'll start these next week. Fingers crossed it goes well!
