Life Skills Assignment
Students,
Today is a great day to be concerned about friends and neighbors. I am asking you
to complete an act of kindness. Please take some time to help someone. You may
use the cookie mix you made in class to bake a snack for a neighbor or maybe help
shovel their driveway or walkway. You may cook lunch or dinner for your family or
help build a snowman with a child. Maybe you can come up with an idea of your
own!
1. Please take a picture of yourself performing the good deed or a pic of the goodies
you have prepared and shared.
2. Hand in your picture with a sentence or two reflecting on how the experience made
you feel and whom it helped.
Please enjoy your day!
Mrs. Rafferty
