Commitment Challenge 5 - Growth, Reflection, and Relationships
This was designed for 8th graders, something I initially thought we'd do just once, but after the first Commitment Challenge Winners were named and received their prizes, the begging immediately began. "When are we doing this again? Will the list of challenges be different next time? Can you win more than once?" I had no idea this was going to become what it has -- no idea this one time activity was going to become a once a month staple in my room -- no idea the kids were going to take this as s

Assess Empathy - Opportunities for Kids to Relate to Each Other & Become Friends
When I made this "test", I had reached my limit - the cruelty I heard and saw kids serving up to other kids was unbearable. Watching kids feel ashamed, broken, and alone -- yet knowing that may be the one common feeling that could bind them all together -- they don't believe you when you tell them, so how can I make them SEE?
