One of the most meaningful things you can say to someone is to offer a compliment. A compliment about something they’ve done, or created can make a person’s day. We have lots of caring young people in our class.
One of the things we have been focusing on since starting in Primary 6 has been to spot others giving genuine compliments for no other reason than to be kind.
Giving a compliment not only makes you feel good, it makes the person receiving the compliment feel great! You usually receive a smile or thanks in return or a conversation is started and the person leaves thinking you are a pretty nice person! Not bad for such a small effort.
Each time we spot someone giving a compliment, we get to add a paperclip to our compliment chain. The aim is to have it reach the floor! When it does, a class treat is coming our way!
