Back to School KINDNESS BUNDLE Coloring, Posters, Checklists, Bookmarks, Poem

Is classroom behavior a problem? Kindness activities are fun and engaging and help improve friendships, happiness and wellbeing. Use kindness coloring pages with positive affirmations, editable kindness checklists (students will be practicing writing without even realizing it), or our gorgeous kindness tree for a group challenge!

You can decorate your bulletin board with growth mindset posters to reinforce positive behavior, participate in the kindness bookmarks challenge or watch the animated acrostic poem to inspire creative thinking.

And when you're done with all of that, your students will be keen to create their own coloring pages on Google Slides or set off on the kindness mission.

There's something everyone will love in this back-to-school bundle and it will have you totally covered for Random Acts of Kindness Day and World Kindness Week!
