Kindness Journal: Journal, Reflect, Worksheets & Activities for Friendship

Start teaching kindness in your classroom and encourage your students to be self aware and mindful of others through this comprehensive and thorough journal!Why Teach Kindness?
Schools and classrooms can be stressful for students in addition to any issues your students bring from home. With every class, creating a community is very important and teaching students how to participate in community is a priority. It is hard for students to learn when they are feeling left out from friendships and others are not being kind. Even students in upper elementary and middle school levels struggle with friendships and showing kindness to one another. It is very painful for individuals when they are ignored or teased and it can be very impactful if students learned how to show kindness through understanding empathy and compassion.

If students understand community and what it means to show compassion and kindness, gaps between students in classrooms can be filled and a sense of connection and safeness can be felt by both the students, teacher and parents. Learning how to be kind and show kindness is a skill that a student can benefit from and use throughout their entire life.
