Kindness Cards

It is very strange at the moment being away from all of our friends at school. 
I really miss seeing all your friendly faces and hearing your funny stories.

So this is a good time to think about someone who you could give a kindness card or drawing to. 
It might be someone in your bubble, or you could go for a walk and put it in the letterbox of a friend...? 

Here are a few ideas to get you started...



Draw a picture, write a letter, include some jokes, anything you like!
Then roll it up and tie it with a ribbon and place somewhere for them to find.






 Make an envelope, decorate it and put your letter inside. 
Put it in a friends letter box or somewhere for your family to find (like under a pillow!).
Don't forget to put their name on it!









Make some little cards with notes attached to a string and hang it somewhere for them to discover...



Or try making them a Warm Fuzzy Friend like this...it can have all of the things you like and miss about them written either on the front or back of it. 
Such a nice thing to receive.




Have a go at one of these...or try your own idea.

(Don't forget to put a photo of it on Seesaw so I can see what you create!)

Character Strength Spotlight




Character strengths are ways of thinking, feeling, and behaving that come naturally and easily to a person and that enable high functioning and performance.” (Linley, 2006)
 


We have begun to explore our character strengths in Autahi and we have begun by unpacking kindness.  

We have been reading some books that make us think about ways to show kindness and examples of other showing kindness.
We read: Image result for rainbow fish Image result for We're all wonders Image result for how to fill a bucket 

We brainstormed lots of ways we can be kind to each other and fill each other's buckets.  

We then started making kindness coupons for people in our class and for our family.

My kindness coupon is for Archie and it says I will play marble run with you.



                                                                                                                           



One of the things we discovered about being kind is that it makes other people feel good, but it also makes us feel good too!
