The following activities are designed to be used as centers (or stations) during classroom lessons. Divide the class into 4
small groups. Have activities set up in various places around the classroom. Each group rotates through all centers in order to
complete all kindness activities.
Kind or Unkind Memory Matching Game.
Print two pages of each set of cards. Print kind/unkind act double sided with question
mark cards. Play like Memory. Lay out cards with pictures facing down. Students take turns
flipping over two cards at a time. If the two pictures match, they keep the match. If the
picture shows a kind act, the match is worth 2 points. If the match shows an unkind act, the
match is worth 1 point. The student who has the most points at the end of the game, wins.

Roll and Respond Cube:

Print cube and fold on all bold lines. Put glue on flaps and fold sides together.
Students take turns rolling cube and answering questions about kindness.
If student rolls a repeat question, have them roll again.

Each student is given a Secret Code Decoder Sheet. Using the decoder sheet, students figure out
kindness quotes. Five secret message sheets are included.
! Kind People are My Kind of People 1 2 3 4 5
