What better time to post
about spreading kindness and love than Valentines! This random acts of kindness
activity is a HUGE hit in my room every year. It's transforms students into
secret agents (of kindness)!
Students watch this PHENONMENAL video about spreading kindness and then are challenged to become
secret agents. As an agent their job is to perform random acts of kindness in
our classroom without getting caught. They love sneaking around doing kind
activities, and having others do nice things for them! Here are some pictures of our MISSION POSSIBLE envelopes, the
students opening them, finding their special pens, and reading their secret missions...messages will not self destruct ;)
The first time I introduce this activity I have it last 1 week. After that our class will do it once a quarter :) I've had other teachers use the activity and have it last the entire month of February/November/December. It's easily adaptable and works wonders on building my classroom community each time. Seeing the students engaged and BEGGING to help each other brightens my day like few things do! New friendships are made and students see each other in a different light.
Students find their own cozy space to read their debriefings!
This is the video I
introduce the activity with - it sends such a strong message!

DeleteLove the video! How do you embed the videos on YouTube?
ReplyDeleteIt's really easy, all you need to do is go to the video on youtube. Then click on the word share in the lower right corner below the video. Another box will pop up, in the lower right corner of that box you'll be able to select embed. Just copy that code and paste it into the website where you want to embed the video.
