Random Acts of Kindness........


National Random Acts of Kindness Week is February 16-23, 2020

Miller and Craddock will be observing/honoring this week and will be concentrating on more of the self-control/self-reflection/ready to learn behaviors for our kindness challenge! These behaviors not only allow the students themselves to do their best learning, but also their peers. Each day, all students in Pre-K thru 2nd grade will be working on the same idea. 

Miller and Craddock will participate in a Kindness Club Challenge beginning on February 3rd and go to February 27th with our challenge:

Kindness Club Challenge 2020 ~

Each day the teacher will post the direction/rule/character choice on their KINDNESS chart in their room. The idea will be reinforced throughout the school each day because everyone will be working on the same idea.

The schedule is as follows in case you would like to participate at home, too :
