Bright and early Monday Morning, Kindness Cookie parachuted into the Kindergarten classroom.

With her, she brought a note detailing the reason for her visit and a special book to show us what kindness is all about.

Be Kind by Pat Zietlow Miller

The students were SO excited! I showed them how to track our acts of kindness on a class bulletin board labeled “Kindness Land.” (Based on my favorite childhood game, Candyland.)

Here is what our game board looks like.

We have had two missions so far:

And today’s mission:

The children were excited to write personal notes detailing why they are grateful for Mrs. McDavid. They were also excited that Ms. Cookie left a new pencil for each of them!

Mrs. McDavid was touched to receive these kind notes.

Once we complete our kindness missions and fill up the game board, the students will. be surprised with a Candyland-themed day!
