5th graders were spreading kindness around the building today. We had groups do a puppet show for Mrs. Fargen's class, a kindness poster with Mrs. Trygstad's class, kindness notes with Miss Strait's class, handmade board games with Miss Archer's class, locker sticky notes for JH, and cleaning of the conference room and teacher's lounge! Remember, Random Act of Kindness Day is February 17th, so pass the kindness on!!
Here's some more pics of our 5th graders spreading kindness today! :)
