I offered a 10 point extra credit assignment to students in my classes today that is due on Monday, March 28. The 10 points will be applied toward any of their lowest math or science TEST grades for the 4th Nine Weeks.
I feel that as a teacher it is not only my responsibility to prepare students academically, but also educate them for life. There are many times that I teach "life lessons". These are some of my students favorite lessons that I teach, where I share stories of things that I have gone through personally or come across in my life.
In an effort to help increase kindness towards one another, I have assigned the following task to students. The extra credit assignment is neither math or science related. I've asked students to complete two acts of charity. They are to write a one page reflection afterwards that includes (to be turned in):
1.) What they did
2.) Why they did it
3.) How they felt afterwards
