One of my favorite friendship books is titled "The Kindness Quilt" By Nancy Elizabeth Wallace
It is a newer book and will elicit random acts of kindness. It also lends itself to making a kindness quilt bulletin board for your classroom. It can be found at http://www.marshallcavendish.us/marshallcavendish-us/children/catalog/nonfiction/076145313X.xml Copied from the website: Random acts of kindness pictured on a paper quilt "Minna and her classmates have been asked by their teacher, Mrs. Bloom, to work on a Kindness Project. Mrs. Bloom wants them to do and draw and share an act of kindness. Minna and her family do lots of kind things, but Minna can't decide which one is right for her project. Then she starts writing and drawing and cutting-and an idea for a paper quilt picturing many acts of kindness begins to take shape!" Important lessons about being kind to each other are depicted in NANCY ELIZABETH WALLACE's charming artwork using origami, recycled paper, markers, crayons, and colored pencils _______________________________________________ Mosaic mailing list [email protected] To unsubscribe or modify your membership please go to http://literacyworkshop.org/mailman/options/mosaic_literacyworkshop.org.
