My Letter of Apology
This Letter of Apology is a great way to get students thinking about their actions and how they impact others. It can be hard to form an apology, so this resource provides little minds with a structure for restoration. This resource also pushes students to think empathetically, thinking through how their actions caused harm to another. I usually have my students write first, then read it to their audience, then snap a picture and send it home.
