Maine teachers! Are you looking for a meaningful project for your students? Shift Change Love is collecting solidarity content to support our healthcare teams during this COVID crisis. Tiny acts of creative gratitude are powerful ways to talk to students about empathy and offers them a way to engage in the issues we face while giving them a sense of control and voice.
AND it is super EASY to scale this project for your class!
Your students could be each assigned a writing/photo/video project (e.g. show-and-tell videos, stop-motion, joint musical performances, family gratitude interviews) OR it could be as simple as a fill-in-the-blank from each student (eg. "I always feel braver when ___________") or photos of handmade posters/cards.
Kids (and grown-ups) of all ages, abilities, and roles are encouraged to submit; we are posting to Instagram (.maine) around the clock so multiple submissions are welcome! Reach out to us if you'd like to coordinate or talk through an idea for how to bring the mission of Shift Change Love into your classroom.
By staying connected to the providers working hard to keep Maine safe, we prevent them from feeling isolated and help boost their emotional health and resilience. Help your kiddos join the effort!
