Day 4: Nobody Sits Alone
One of the most powerful acts of kindness is INCLUDING someone who feels left out. Being excluded (left out) is one of the worst feelings in the world. Remember a time when nobody picked you for a team or nobody sat with you at lunch? That feeling of being invisible is painful.
YOU have the power to make sure nobody feels that way! Here is how:
At RECESS: Look for someone standing alone. Walk over and say 'Hey, want to play with us?'
At LUNCH: See an empty seat next to someone eating alone? Sit there and start a conversation.
In CLASS: If the teacher says 'pick a partner,' look for someone who does not have one yet.
At a PARTY: Notice who is standing in the corner? Go talk to them!
It takes just 10 seconds of courage to include someone, but that 10 seconds can change their entire day — or even their entire school year.
