A "Pocket" Full of Kindness - An SEL Classroom Activity

By Jeni Donath

A "Pocket" Full of Kindness - An SEL Activity that focuses on kindness and the idea that you can take it with you wherever you go and "pull it right out of your back pocket" as the saying goes!! This activity is great for younger elementary students who are getting an introduction to all things kindness and all of the different ways that they can show kindness to others! For this activity, you will need string and scissor to help make it the most successful! My students LOVED being able to put their very own pocket together! I love the hands-on lessons as much as they do!

"Spice" it up and instruct students to decorate their "personalized order" anyway that they'd like. You could do so much with this activity - incorporate life skills by asking students to order their own drink, intertwine creativity by asking them to incorporate their own special ingredients into their drink, and then, of course, "fill it up" with all of the things that they are grateful and thankful for! So sweet and fun! This would also make a cute bulletin board as well.
