Want to incorporate the encouragement movement in your school? Here are some ideas:

    1.    Have a food drive to benefit a local charity.

    2.    Make encouragement a part of your classroom.
         •    History: Take time to study those who made a positive difference in history. Ideas? Rosa Parks, Martin Luther King,          Jr., Mahatma Ghandi, etc.
         •    Art: Make cards for family members, troops, hospital patients- anyone who could use a little encouragement.
         •    English: Choose uplifting literature for your class to read or write a poem, story or paper about encouragement.

3.    Have an encouragement assembly or party at your school on September 12th.
