In the spirit of thinking of others and giving back to the community, Mrs. Smith's honors British Literature classes created holiday greeting cards to send to residents who reside at Victory Centre of Sierra Ridge in Country Club Hills. As students concluded a brief thematic lesson on Charles Dickens’ “A Christmas Carol,” Smith incorporated lessons on the importance of community service and its role in fostering positive social change and individual development within self.
This project allowed students to apply knowledge gained in the classroom to real-world situations. It also reinforced the importance of civic responsibility and engagement. The outcome for this activity was to aid the students' sense of purpose and promote empathy within the area in which they live.
