Yesterday, I was able to bring back what’s been missing all year in the 180 Classroom. Now that we are back in person, we can begin again one of my favorite community-building activities.

Kindness Cards.

Kids write them to each other. I deliver them. We talk as a community about the importance of being inclusive. It takes 5-10 minutes. Former students frequently tell me that they have kept them, and that they still cherish them. It’s a powerful way to cultivate connections in the classroom. So glad that we were able to do it again. So glad.

Happy Thursday, all.

Do. Reflect. Do Better.
