Big Idea
Directions
Students take one piece of card stock and their favorite pen color and put their name in the center of the paper and draw a small circle around their name. This circle map will be the place where others will write their compliments. Students stand up with their pen and prepare to write a genuine compliment that is not based a person's looks, but character or meaning in our life. Post the instructions and a list of possible compliments for ideas. Students start with their home table group, rotating around and writing a compliment on each person's circle map. The compliment may be anonymous or signed. Once the groups are done at their home table, have the entire group rotate clockwise to the next table. If helps, set a timer so students know when to rotate.
