Cultivating a Kind Classroom

Imagine you’re in charge of making your classroom the kindest it can be and write down three rules or activities you would implement.

This prompt encourages kids to put themselves in a leadership role and think critically about how they can foster kindness among their classmates. They can consider what types of behaviors promote kindness, what activities can help build empathy, and how their rules affect their classmates’ interactions. With this exercise, children can reflect on their personal values, empathy, and the power of kindness in a social setting.
