CKM ANNOUNCEMENT:
The CKM has seen the demand for a New Classroom Concept rollout to help make our Kindness Begins with Me Program more accessible to many other classrooms around the State of Idaho. We conceive that our NEW Classroom Concept will allow more teachers and parents to be able to support a Kindness Program for their own students and kids.
In the last couple of years, we have had AWESOME teachers whom have shared the vision in implementing our program and took it upon themselves to gather business and parent sponsors to fund their classrooms with Kindness T-Shirts. We would like to encourage more of this concept and know that it will help bring more of a personal investment and bring added awareness to the cause. We realize that funding entire schools takes ALOT of funding and grants and greatly appreciated the PTA and PTOs that continue to do this. The CKM will still will highly encourage and support full funding of entire schools. Through this experience the CKM has seen how amazing teachers implement our Kindness/Bullying Prevention program in their own classrooms and we THANK YOU!
When the CKM receives funds from fundraising events, business sponsors, or grants, we will open the eligibility for teachers to apply. We are excited about this NEW CLASSROOM CONCEPT and hope parents will be excited too! Parents, now is your chance to have the Kindness Program for your kids in their own classrooms!
HOW TO GET STARTED IN 8 EASY STEPS:
- Contact your child’s teacher and introduce the CKM Program. COMING SOON – Parent/Teacher Flyer to give out with all the information.
- We will include or make accessible (1) Kindness Begins with Me Planning Booklet in your teacher order.
- We ask that they support a Kindness Week for their students. The entire week curriculum is planned or they can join in their own school’s planned Kindness Week.
- Have your teacher remind their students and encourage parents through the teacher newsletter, to wear the Kindness shirt each Thursday to build the habit of wearing them, especially every third (3rd) Thursday for Kindness Day. The Kindness t-shirts are the most valuable visual learning tool, they bring a constant remembrance.
- Each month has a Kindness Theme and a monthly Kindness celebrated every third (3rd) Thursday. They can use our booklet to plan a 15 minute Kindness Lesson for this day. The CKM Booklet has suggested classroom activities, media, and books to read. The program is all planned for them to implement. Your teachers can also choose to do a 5-10 minute Kindness lesson each Thursday if they want to do that too. The program is what you make of it.
- Have them fill out the Kindness T-Shirt Order Forms attached and collect them.
