Students with handmade crafts

Earlier this week, Mrs. Richmann's extension group had the opportunity to show off the kindness machines they built. This project was a hands-on building opportunity that not only taught students electronics and coding, but also about the importance of showing kindness to others. The project was inspired by the book, The Kindness Machine by Christina Dankert. Students said they enjoyed this project because they got to use their imaginations, learned not to give up and stay positive, and promote kindness. What a fun way to learn these important lessons! #gosabers #centraldewittcsd #ekstrandelementary #kindnessmachine #saberssucceeding'
