Five middle school students,all wearing "I choose kindness" T-shirts,sit around a table discussing how to turn that message into action.
It was a class called "Ready,Set,Give!" in West Suburban Summer School,Minnesota,US.
For five days,from 8:30 am to 4 pm,Hannah,13,Annette,12,Allison,12,Adelaide,13 and Ben,13,designed activities that could turn their kindness into action.
They learned a lot about service projects.For example,after hearing about "Beyond the Yellow Ribbon",a program that provides care to soldiers (士兵),the students made cards for soldiers themselves.They filled care packages (愛心包裹) with nuts,beef jerky,toothbrushes,even fresheners.
The best part,though,was choosing their own service projects.Adelaide is planning to set up a lemonade stand to help the homeless.Annette is interested in protecting animals.
She plans to create posters to help people understand the dangers of ocean litter,pesticides and pollution.Hannah and Allison are paying attention to protecting the rights and health of young people.Ben wants to help people do a better job of recycling plastic ( 塑料回收 ).
The students also visited Prism,a social service agency (服務(wù)機構(gòu)) in Minnesota.They worked for five hours,sorting donations,putting food on shelves and doing some cleaning.
Sarah Bailey,the activities' organizer,is confident that the students' projects will be successful.
"These guys are ready to take action," Bailey said. "It's more than I hoped for."
