As we have explored many significant people throughout history, we noticed they all have one thing in common. They are all people who have taken action! As part of our Living Museum, students are asked to take an action inspired by their learning. Many students are inspired to do Random Acts of Kindness. Here are a couple of videos that have made us think about the impact of kindness to make changes in the world... Ella took action by sharing what life might be like without this significant person..."Imagine that you had to go the hospital. Your sheets are covered in blood and poo! Your nurse does not care about that! Your nurses were drunk! You had to share a bed with another person! Once your out of the hospital you are sicker than when you came in. Good that Florence saved our lives by cleaning the hospitals up and got new sheets for you and you did not have to share a bed with another person."
