Today, during school, one of my quietest students came up to me with a tissue box in hand. A really classy looking tissue box, to be said. It had Nemo and Dory and happiness on it.
In her quietest voice, she said to me, "I saw Ms. G was going to throw this away, so I asked if I could have it. I'm going to upcycle it."
Oh, be still my heart. I did a thing teaching.
This is the second child in two days to take a project to be upcycled. The first kid used a marker box and is slowly making it into something else, and now the tissue box.
I did something.
This world will have a positive change - one lesson at a time.
It's amazing what happens when you get to influence young minds.
Peace.
