Good Deed Wednesdays

Since the beginning of the year when we had the Rachel's Challenge assembly, my advisory kids have been participating in Good Deed Wednesdays. Each week, they would write down something nice they had done for someone else without being asked or prompted. We started a chain and it kept growing and growing! So I attached it to the ceiling outside my room. The kids would do things like "I cooked dinner for my mom 'cause she had to work late" or "I helped my neighbor's kid get back home." Fun to see what they had to say.

This is how they attached to the ceiling. We covered the entire width of the hall 3 or 4 times back and forth and then went about 20 feet vertical from my door on either side.

Here's the pile of good deeds at the end of the year. When I showed my kids this morning, it was fun to hear their response about how many there were and they really impressed themselves! That pile is thick, too! It would be like jumping into a pile of leaves in the fall. Great job, cute kids!
