One fun and engaging morning greeting activity for 3rd graders is to have them participate in a “compliment circle.” Have the students sit in a circle and take turns giving a genuine compliment to the person sitting next to them. This activity helps promote positivity, kindness, and building a sense of community within the classroom. It also sets a positive tone for the day ahead.

Now I want to create 3 different versions of this. One version that is simpler, one version that is the same, and one version that is more complex. Format the output in 3 nice sections.

Sure! Here are three different versions of the morning greeting activity:

Simple Version:

  • Have students sit in a circle.
  • Each student takes turns saying “Good morning” to the person sitting next to them.
  • Encourage students to make eye contact and smile while greeting each other.

Same Version:

  • Have students sit in a circle.
  • Each student takes turns giving a compliment to the person sitting next to them.
  • Encourage students to be specific and sincere with their compliments.

Complex Version:

  • Divide students into small groups of 4-5.
  • Each group forms a circle and takes turns sharing a positive memory or experience they had recently.
  • After sharing, each student in the group gives a compliment to the person on their left, focusing on the shared memory or experience.
  • Rotate the groups so that each student has the opportunity to share and receive compliments from different classmates.

These variations can be adjusted based on the dynamics and preferences of your 3rd-grade class. Enjoy implementing these morning greeting activities!
