My class did 15 Random Acts of Christmas Kindness this December. This year I took pictures of each one and created a book. Most anything can be made into a classroom book, and this one is pretty special. I'm hoping it's a reminder of how we changed the world for 15 days. Maybe it will inspire them to continue their world-changing ways. (Go here to read about our RACKing.)
What a great way to keep RACK ides fresh for your students and keep them reading!

Welcome To First Grade Room 5
Connie, you'll have to share how that goes next year. :)
DeleteI loved reading all your posts about RACKING. We did not call it as so ~ but my little first graders became secret elves in December. Each child brought from home a plate of 24 cookies. We delivered each plate to a different classroom, office, lunch ladies, etc. Some had a bit of a hard time giving and not receiving at first, but they learned lots and really enjoyed it.
ReplyDeleteFirst Grade Carousel, I love hearing about your secret elves. What a great way to bless others.
DeleteWhat a fun idea!
