The Mighty Kind Movement: An Orgamites Teacher Toolbox
Toolkit #3: Mighty Kind
“Teaching kids to count is fine, but teaching them what counts is best.” - Bob Talbert
Imagine how much better life would be if we all chose to be kinder... to ourselves, each other and the world we live in with just 5 steps. That’s the vision behind The Mighty Kind Movement. Brought to life by the Orgamites, it’s a growing movement of teachers, students and families who believe that enough small acts of kindness can make the biggest difference. In fact, they can change the world!
Unlike the previous two toolkits, this toolkit is designed for students aged 8-14. Updated October 2024.
Are you interested in growing kinder, community-minded kids, whilst also connecting more with your kids over some brilliant activities and shared conversations? This educational toolkit has been created to encourage and inspire kids to take better care of one another and the environment too. As part of ‘Mighty Kind’ — over the course of 5 short lessons, your students will learn all about recycling, upcycling, lifecycling and how to not just do kind things, but be kinder people too.
TOOLKIT 3: MIGHTY KIND
Toolkit 3 is ready-to-go with lesson plans and presentations to worksheets, classroom activities and more… everything you need to make your lessons super-memorable is right here waiting for you.
