When kids #ChooseKindness, they can help #StopBullying! Visit stopbullying.gov/resources/get-… for resources made for kids and teens to help them prevent and respond to bullying when it happens.

In a video blog, 2023-24 #MTOY Candice Jackson talks about using the community as a “laboratory of learning.” Planning field trips and making connections with local institutions can give students invaluable experience. #PME #ProudMIEducator @MIEducator youtu.be/viqi__aoax8?si…

According to the School of Kindness, “#WorldKindnessDay was first launched in 1998 by The World Kindness Movement, an organisation formed at a 1997 Tokyo conference of kindness organisations around the world.” ow.ly/UTJH50Q76YE

This #VeteransDay, we honor all those who have served our country in the United States Armed Forces. Here’s a great first-hand story from a veteran who went from 29 years in the Army to a military consulting job, but at 57, he felt a call to teach. ow.ly/om3w50Q6w7m

How appropriate that this year’s #CCoB took place on #SocialMediaKindnessDay. The day was created in memory of late TV presenter Caroline Flack, who spread a message of kindness. Find lots of resource materials at the SMKD website: socialmediakindnessday.com. 🤟
