My Project

Have you ever noticed how a small note can make a big difference? Students can use sticky notes, cards, and joke cards to bring smiles to people's faces. These simple acts can brighten someone's day and spread happiness in our school! Using sticky notes is a fun and easy way to share kind words. You can write a compliment, a friendly message, or even a fun fact. Stick them on desks, agendas, walls, or anywhere your friends will see them. Imagine the surprise when someone finds a note that says, "You're awesome! " or "Keep smiling!"

These little reminders can make anyone feel special.

The joke cards are a fantastic way to spread laughter! Laughter is contagious, and a good joke can turn a bad day into a great one. I might write something like, "Why did the teddy bear say no to dessert? Because it was stuffed!" Sharing laughter not only lifts spirits but also helps students turn around a bad mood storm.

This project is not just about making notes and cards; it's about inspiring others. When we spread joy, we encourage others to do the same. Imagine a classroom filled with kindness and laughter! Every sticky note, card, and joke shared can create a ripple effect of happiness. Your small actions can inspire others to spread joy too.
