"The wonderful resources that were shared- I am walking away with so many activities to start implementing at my school and classroom!"

"So many accessible strategies for implementing kindness into my life and my instruction. Learning about the health effects of kindness on the person being kind is a nice thing to know about."

"I felt inspired. I thought everything was organized, logical, clear, useful, and positive. Very authentic and practical. I liked that all parts flowed well together and there was a good balance between reading, video, and audio."

"The resources were so helpful! As a busy teacher and mom, it’s wonderful to be able to pull from a vetted source and not have to do hours and hours of research and planning in order to incorporate this into my class!"

"I loved the self-paced format and all of the resources that were shared. There were so many activities that I have either already implemented or am excited to do soon!"

"I loved ALL the content and believe it is critical material everybody should learn."

"I loved the different resources that were provided for kindness activities to implement in my classroom the next day!"

"The resources were so organized, beneficial, and of great variety (articles, lesson plans, and videos)."

"I love learning that kindness has a rippling and positive impact on people and communities. It even has a positive impact even on bystanders. I’m excited to incorporate what I’ve learned into my classroom."

"The resources were incredible. Some of them resonated with me on a deep and powerful level. I learned so much about showing myself kindness and how to cultivate kindness in both of my buildings. Thank you!"

"I loved the variety of resources and content provided to students in this course. All very actionable and helpful!"

"I loved this course so much! I so appreciated all of the practical ideas that I can do with my class on how to teach kindness."

"I enjoyed exploring resources I can implement in my classroom right away! I’m especially excited about RAK cards (I created them yesterday and plan to laminate them soon!), and the “Kindness in the Classroom” curriculum
(I printed it out and explored it yesterday, and I think my 5th graders will love it!)."

"I loved all of the resources! Lots of information and very inspiring videos really motivated me to make changes in my own life as well as pass this gift of kindness along with others."

"I found the learning to be NEW. There are times when I take a course and feel like I have already heard/learned about some of the concepts. With this course almost everything was new. I had never heard of the RAK Foundation or Life Vest Inside."

"Everything that I learned was applicable to my teaching. Through the work I was able to develop systems and strategies for the upcoming school year, with lots of great resources and lesson plans to get me started.
I particularly like how helpful and kind the instructor was, and how quick and responsive they were to my emails and questions."
