Here is our second set of blog posts about kindness from our Franklin Falcons!

1. Kindness Rocks

Kindness is super cool. It’s important to be kind. If your kind, people will be kind back to you. KINDNESS ROCKS AND hate drools. Kindness is better than hatred. There is a lot of hate in the world. We should change it. Just try to be nice please. People can have opinions but you do not need to be mean, cruel and rude about it. There is a lot of good in donations and charities. Things you can do to be kind, helping out and doing random acts of kindness. People think you should do, NOT BE RACIST. Some people think black and colored skin is better than white skin and some people think white skin is better than colored and black skin. People think being gay is wrong. It’s sad. Everyone deserves to be treated fairly. Kindness should be everywhere and with everyone. Kindness is great and it makes you happy. You should use it to. Kindness is amazing. (Grade 6 student)

 

2. The Star Thrower

There is a poem that I quite like. It is from a book called “The star thrower” The poem is about a man who is walking down the beach and sees a boy doing what looks like dancing. When he got closer, he saw the boy was throwing starfish into the ocean. He asks what the boy was doing and the boy responds with “The tide is going in and all these starfish will die if they don’t get back in the ocean” The man says “There are thousands of starfish on this beach, you can’t possibly make a difference!” The child threw another starfish in and said “It made a difference to that one.” I am pretty sure that this poem means that no matter how big or small your act of kindness is, it will never go unnoticed or unappreciated. This is one of the reasons why kindness is so important. There are many more but you must keep reading to find those ones out.

Now that you have heard about this thing called kindness, you need to learn more about it. It is very important in your everyday life. Kindness can help you persuade someone, get extra of something or just make you feel good about yourself and it helps the other person feel good too. Although, most importantly, kindness can help make and strengthen friendships. That doesn’t mean that you can just go up to a random person and compliment them and then instantly be best friends. That would probably spread covid. After covid though, you still can’t do it. That would be creepy. What you can do however, is show kindness, respect and think twice before you speak. Even with friends and family you have to be respectful and kind. Otherwise quarrels and arguments might break out and that just makes your life more difficult. You can show kindness to your loved ones by helping them out of sticky situations and doing fun activities with them. If you show interest in their hobbies, it can also show them that you care. There are many other things you can do too! HAving friends can help make your life easier and more fun. They can do the same kind things you do for them  back to you. The cool part is that the majority of what you have to do is be kind. What goes around comes around. When you are kind to others, they are kind back. The thing is, all of that is just scratching the surface on why kindness is important.

Our time is coming to an end and so here is the conclusion. Life is a lot simpler when you just remember to help people out, be respectful and be kind. How have you helped someone out today? Thank you for reading and now go help some special starfishes of people! (Laurel, Grade 6)

 

3. -Tips On How To Be a Kind Friend-

Have you ever wondered what you can do to be a kind friend? Well my friend you have come to the right place! I have all the tips you need! (I hope…)

A very important tip you need to know is to be kind. As simple as it sounds, It’s probably the most important because nobody will want to be friends with you if you are a mean jerk, So be kind 🙂 Tip number two is to use kind words when talking to them or about them. This can be pretty important because talking about them behind their back is very rude and disrespectful to the person you are talking about and when talking to them also make sure to use kind words because aint no one going to be hanging out with you if you talk rude about people. Tip number three is to help them! If you see someone getting bullied should you leave them to be bullied? NO! And if you said yes, I won’t hesitate to kick you to mars forever…… Tip number four is to listen to what they have to say. Ignoring them is going to make it seem like you don’t care for what they have to say. Then they won’t want to hang out with you anymore if you’re not going to listen to what they have to say. The last tip is to hangout with them. It’s a good idea to hangout with them, Because you can get to be better friends and talk more, Because if you’re not hanging out with them then you will most likely lose friendship with them.

Thank you for reading my blog! I hope this helped you learn how to be à kind friend and even make some new ones too! Hope you enjoyed and remember…be a kind friend or you will be on mars in 1.2 seconds (Olivia, Grade 6)

7. How do we show kindness?

 Before I start let me introduce myself, im Anna whats your name? That’s such an amazing name, are you named after someone? Asking questions like that can boost their confidence or possibly make their day! Questions are not the only thing that can be shown for giving kindness. Kind things like quotes or helping out even respecting them can be kindness. A really big kind thing to do is to support them, no matter who they are, they could be going through some hard times. I mean, we all are with covid-19 but that’s why its so important we support each other. Helping people is probably the best thing you could do during this time. One little thing can affect their day so much, even their week! Always remember to show kindness and respect to anyone and anywhere! Everyone has been working very hard during times like these, we need to show respect everywhere! To everyone! Anyways, thats all for today, have an amazing day and remember to be kind!! bye!:) (Anna, Grade 5)

 

8. Friendly friends!

Have you ever come up to someone and they were super nice to you, well i’m going to give you some tips on kindness. Make sure to pass the tips onto some family or friends.

One great tip is sharing things. This is a really important thing to know because if you don’t share, your friend or person you’re hanging out with will be really upset, and that’s not good. Another really important tip is listening when someone is talking. This is really important because if you’re not listening you won’t know if something really good or really bad is happening in their life. Another really important tip is always telling the truth to people. You should always do this one because your friend or person most likely wants to improve, just make sure you’re doing it in a nice way. Now I’m going to tell you what kindness means to me. To me kindness means helping and sharing. That’s what I think because both of those things are really important. 

Hopefully you have learned a bit about kindness! What does kindness mean to you? Thank you so much for reading this blog about kindness. (Kayla, Grade 5)
