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 Project
I am passionate about sharing my love of the written word with students and about finding ways to get kids excited about reading, but I love to support and connect with our students in other ways as well. I am organizing a kindness club at our school where students will write thoughtful notes, create artwork and bookmarks with kind words to make others smile, paint rocks to hide around school and surrounding neighborhoods, and make motivational buttons to give away to teachers, classmates, and friends.
Being kind to others not only puts more joy out into the world but provides opportunities for students to perform random acts of kindness to help them be both happier and healthier.
Being kind triggers a release of oxytocin which equals reduced stress levels and increased happiness. When a person is generous and kind they feel useful and that naturally increases self-esteem.
Kindness also increases serotonin levels and increased serotonin levels lead to improved learning, memory, sleep, mood, and overall health. In this club, students will learn fun and creative ways to be kind to one another while bolstering their confidence and helping them to be successful in school.
More than half of students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
