Random Act of Kindness: Day 15

December 15, 2009

I continue to test first grade. They did so well and had improved so much since the beginning of the year. It was hard to believe these children were in a major production and play, and had missed a lot of the academic instruction for the last month. It goes to show you how important the arts really are for a child's development. After testing more than half of the class, I went to the teacher and congratulated her on all the hard work and the improvement that was obviously from her hard work and instruction. She was really appreciative. If you know someone has worked hard, why not tell them what a good job they are doing. I could tell she appreciated someone noticing.
