Celebrating Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month
This project is a part of the Hispanic & Latinx Heritage Month celebration because
it supports a Latino teacher or a school where the majority of students are Latino.
My students are part of the Kindness and Compassion Club. This group of 36 students promote kindness at our school. They work very hard to make our campus a happier place to be. They have written supportive chalk messages around campus. They have hidden "love rocks" to find at recess.
This club really takes being kind seriously!
They want to get rid of bullies and replace them with lifelong friends! The playground can be a lonely place. While we have playground kindness kids who look for others who are not playing with someone, the club wants to do more.
My Project
The Kindness and Compassion club (KC club) has a mission to be a leader to our school and community by showing kindness and compassion to all. We want to create a better environment for the students.
The Kindness and Compassion club consists of 36 students from kindergarten to fifth grade that want to create a special bench that is easy to identify.
This way anyone who is looking for a friend to play with during recess can sit on the bench as a way to find a buddy.
Please help us eliminate loneliness at recess and foster friendship. If a child is sitting alone on our buddy bench, it is a signal to other students on the playground to ask him or her to play. Afterall, recess is a time for everyone to play!
