Bringing Gratitude into Your Classroom

Bringing Gratitude into Your Classroom

Integrating gratitude into your curriculum—especially during this season—offers a wonderful chance to connect and learn more about your students. It’s easy to get started! Simply download the templates, and choose the one that best fits your class.
Bring your students together to talk or share ideas about what they’re grateful for. Write their responses on chart paper or a whiteboard, adding fun drawings or visuals if possible! You can also write simple sentences based on their ideas, introducing new vocabulary along the way.
Next, invite your students to get creative! Have them write or draw what they’re thankful for on each “leaf” of the template.
After everyone has finished, invite students to share what they’re grateful for with the class. Then, select a spot in the classroom or somewhere in the school to display their work, making it visible to all. This display serves as a powerful reminder of gratitude and proudly showcases your classes’ contributions. Need the templates? Download them here!
