Elaine's Pay it Forward

Part One: What is "Pay it Forward"?
After seeing this inspiring movie, I realized how important it is to pay it forward. It is important to pay it forward because it just doesn't make a difference on the person you helped but rather the whole world. This movie sends a strong message to many people and I am glad to have seen this movie because it's going to inspire me to do the same thing Trevor did. For me, paying it forward means helping a person and asking them to help another person which will result in making a difference in our world. By doing this, people will realize that it's time to do something to help make a difference. This is certainly something I am willing to do and I will attempt to get others involved as well.

Part Two: Our Act of Kindness
Our group involved four people, Binesi, Mary Jane, Faye, and I. For our act of kindness, we decided to make bracelets and sell them to help get a polio vaccination for a community in Africa. We were very fortunate to get a spot at the book fair to sell the bracelets. We completed our act of kindness during the parent teacher conference which was on Thursday night and Friday morning/afternoon.



Part Three: The Experience
I thought that our act of kindness went fantastic. Our goal was to sell all of the bracelets and raise $175.00. I was so happy to have reached our goal and knowing that we helped a community in Africa put a smile on my face.

At first I was afraid that no one would buy our bracelets and so we wouldn't be able to raise enough money. In case that happened, we were prepared to do something else but I wasn't ready to give up. Our sale was going slow at first but none of us wanted to give up. To make our sale go a bit faster, we decided to make posters and walk around the hallways to see if we could get more people interested in buying our bracelets. Along the way, there were many people who stopped to read our sign and asked "what does pay it forward mean"? We briefly told them what it meant and I was pretty sure those people stopped by the library to check out our merchandise. To get even more people interested, we decided to ask for requests of what color the customer would like their bracelet to be and that we would customize it for them. Many people bought our merchandise including teachers, parents, students, and even the staff in the office. At the end I thought it was a very successful experience and we managed to reach our goal of $175.00.



As we were doing our act of kindness, I felt good about what we were doing. I had that warm feeling that everyone said that we would get and it made me smile. I was so happy to know that we were actually going to help the community in Africa and help them live a better life. I'm sure that the rest of the group had the same feeling I had. Hopefully the people who bought our bracelets payed it forward. I would certainly like to do this again and this is an experience I will never forget.
I would like to give special mention to the people who helped out which were: Sharmaine, Jerick, and Noelle. I would like to thank them for helping us achieve our goal and hopefully they had fun.














Part Four: Why is this important?

The idea of pay it forward is important because it will make a difference in our world. By this I mean that you will not just help someone out because you are expecting something in return. You do this because you want to help make a difference and put a smile into people's faces without getting anything in return.

I think that our act of kindness has made a difference because we didn't just do it because we were asked to but rather because we wanted to. Hopefully the community in Africa will now live a better life and that we were able to put a smile on each and everyone of their faces.

Gilberts Pay It Forward

Part 1

What does pay it forward mean to me. I think Pay it forward means to be involve in doing something good then the person that you did a good deed to has to do a good deed to someone else.

Part 2
Our act of kindness we donated stuff like clothes and toys to the salvation army. We also did another act of kindness which was to give cards to all of the teachers around the school. The reason why we donated a lot of stuff to the salvation army was because everyone in are group had lots of old clothes that we don't were anymore. Our act of kindness was completed on Dec 5, 2009.

Part 3
Our act of kindness went very well. All the teachers excepted the cards we made and they said they were going to pay it forward. I think the teachers were very proud of us because we were telling them what pay it forward meant. It was kind of funny because some teachers didn't know what pay it forward means but it was all good because we told them what it meant. I felt really good doing pay it forward and making a difference in other peoples life's.

Part 4
Pay it forward is important because it encourages people to make a difference in other peoples life's. Our act of kindness made a big difference in peoples life's. This was a very fun project to do I im really proud of our group we worked very hard on this project. Thank you and remember to pay it forward.

Elissa's Pay It Forward

Part 1
I think Pay It Forward is great, cause it has a big effect on the world .Pay It Forward is amazing , who ever created pay it forward is genuis. If one person could help 3 other people , and then they help 3 other people then on and on . The world would be so much better. This movie had a big infulence on me , it taught me that just one her person can have a huge a effect on another person. So , i would like everyone in the world to keep this chain going , called ''Pay It Forward'' This movie is very touching and Insperational.

Part 2
My Pay it Forward activity was handing out cards, candy canes, and chocolate.
We choose this activity because we thought it would be fun , and giving people cards can sometimes make a persons day or even make them happy. We handed out cards and candy at polo park to all the people , and put cards on peoples cars and in their mail boxes.

Ammorn's Pay It Forward

Part 1

I think that the movie " Pay it Forward " is a great influence on people. I think that it is great because of the effect it has on the world. It truly means alot because one person helps 3 people, then those people have 3 other people and it grows into a big chain. So then, the world becomes an even better place. What this movie taught me was that, even just one person could make a huge difference. So, I want to keep, or start a new chain and I hope that it grows larger and larger and changes the world for the better. The movie was really touching. This is what pay it forward means to me.

Part 2

For my pay it forward act of kindness, I chose to do 2 things. One was volunteering at a school and the other was handing out candy canes and christmas cards to students, teachers and strangers around Sargent Park School. I chose to volunteer at a school because I like to help out little kids and it made me feel like i was in elementary again. I chose handing out candy canes and christmas cards because it seemed like it was in the spirit of the season and I wanted to see the smiles on peoples faces when I give it to them. I helped out teachers and students at Victoria Albert School. When Vanessa, Charis and I were at Victoria Albert, we helped out the teacher by making flash cards for her students. Also, we went out for recess and played with the children around the play structure. We volunteered at Victoria Albert on November 27, when we had no school and we handed out candy canes and christmas cards on December 7 during lunch time.


Part 3

My act of kindness went really well. One thing I did for pay it forward was I volunteered at Victoria Albert School. I did this because I like helping out little kids. The teacher was kind also. Another thing I did was I handed out candy canes and christmas cards.
I felt sort of a warm sensational feeling watching the little kids do work and run around at recess. I also felt some excitement and alot of happiness handing out candy canes and christmas cards. It was all so much fun.
When I first walked into the school, people gave me weird looks. Then, when I walked into the classroom, the teacher asked why Vanessa, Charis and I were there. We told her we were there to help her. Then, she smiled and asked us to help her by making flash cards. Also, when we were handing out candy canes and christmas cards, some people smiled and said " thanks " while other people were confused. Then there were people like Mr Mangaron, who yelled out some gibberish. After we were done making the flash cards, we asked the teacher to pay it forward. She reacted by asking us what it meant. So we explained to her everything. Also, on the envelopes of our christmas cards, we wrote in purple " Pay it Forward ". I think we got most of the 7er's confused.

Part 4

The idea of pay it forward is important because it helps people make good choices and it helps people feel kinder towards other people. The more people do good deeds and tell other people to do good deeds, the more better the world would be. I think that my act of kindness will definitely make a difference because you could tell on the looks of some peoples faces, that they wanted to do something nice for someone else.

Pay it Forward

These are the things we did for our project, "Pay It Forward".

we went to The Salvation Army to donate some of our things .

We had 3 people in our group , joseph, justine , and elvin .

Celdrick's Pay It Forward

Pay It Forward (Act of Kindness)
Part 1:
Pay it forward: For me pay it forward means that I should do something for someone else without getting anything back. (well except for a "thank you") Pay it forward is also when you help another person, then they will help another and then the other will help another and it goes on. If you start that you will see how big it will get. I know Pay it Forward only has a few words (3) but it really means a lot to other people. Like the guy that Trevor helped. He helped him because he was homeless and then the guy paid it forward, by stopping the girl from suiciding. At the end of the movie you saw that lots of people went outside Trevor's house just because he helped those people. So it's a really big thing when helping other people.




The Pay it forward movie really meant something for me. It thought me a lot of things. It will teach you to think first for others before yourself. It also helped me to be a more better person that I was before. Most people...well let's change it.... Lots of people have been bullied and they are not happy when they get bullied, like Trevor's friend. He was being bullied by those 3 guys. So if you ever get bullied just stand up and don’t be scared to fight back. (just kidding don’t..... it will only make things worse) What you can do is go to an adult like your teacher, principal, vice, or your parents and tell them that you’re getting bullied...... Bystanders it's your turn.... If you are bystanding don’t be scared, because that’s wrong. Just tell an adult.

Well.... here we go.. let’s check out what I did for Pay it forward.








Part 2:

For pay it forward I decided to pick babysitting for free. So I babysat my baby cousin. Her name is Julia. This is a picture of her. So I went to her house to start my pay it forward and I entered the house and saw her playing with her toys. So I just let her play for a couple more minutes and then I made her milk and I fed her. When I was feeding her milk, she squeezed the rubber part and milk started to squirt on her face. So I just grabbed a soft cloth and cleaned it up.



















In this picture I was feeding her. This was time after there was milk on her face.

















After I fed her we waited for a couple of minutes and I let her watch Tree house. The show was Franklin. When I watched Franklin, I got really bored. So I just forced myself to watch it. I really wanted to watch NBA and when I turned it on to NBA she got mad at me. So I just changed the channel back to Franklin.
So after watching I put her in the crib and I let her play some more games. She really likes to move. She kept on rolling and rolling on her crib.




Me and Julia playing.













After playing, I gave her the pacifier and I put it in her mouth. So just when I was starting to leave, she was making this weird sound and when I turned around, she was waving goodbye to me, and I just said goodbye.

Part 3:
So I quickly ran home and did the green sheet.

After babysitting I felt responsible, because I took care of Julia and fed her and played games with her. It was really fun playing with a kid like her age. You will really have fun. Then after I felt good it’s this feeling (I can’t really describe it). I didn’t get to ask her parents to pay it forward, because it was getting late and I forgot to. But I think that they will pay it forward to someone else, because they’re just like the person who will do something nice for someone else.









Part 4:
Pay it forward is really important. It will make a big change to the world and to other people who are bad. (who knows.. they might change) My Pay it forward was really fun. It kept me un bored, and it really helped Julia’s parents. So people should start thinking for other people first before themselves , do not get anything back example: money etc. Remember to Pay it forward.

Connor's Pay it Forward

Part 1




What the meaning pay it forwrd means to me is to do good things to help out people. Helping people out makes the world a better place and teaches people to help other people, and then they can help other people, continuing on and on so everybody is happy. So if you pay you respect to someone and they continue the chain there will be less hatred going around and everybody can enjoy there lives. This is what pay it forward means to me.




Part 2




My act of kindness was to buy pillows for the troops going to Afghanistan. I chose to do this for my pay it forward because the troops helping keep peace in Afghanistan need to be respected for what the're doing for us. I helped the troops in Afghanistan. I bought four pillows to build up to the total of five thousand pillows. I did my act of kindness on my own time during the weekend because it was worth it to help out.







Part 3


My act of kindness went very well I enjoyed it when I went there and got pictures taken of me being kind towards our troops. I made a video saying what I was going to do when I was at home and then after that I went to JS furniture and got pictures taken of me with the reciept saying that I had bought four pillows for the troops. When I was done the lady at the counter gave me a ribbon to put on the christmas tree which I believe had a name of a soldier on it. I felt very good about doing this because I was helping out and it is good to be a part of good things. The woman that helped me at the counter was very happy that I was helping out and she was very happy to let me help out. I did not ask anyone to pay it forward but if I did it would be to the soldiers, but they have already done this by doing there duties keeping peace.


Part 4


The idea of pay it forward is extremely important because it makes the world a better place by including everyone it reaches in an act of helping. It doesnt matter how big or small the thing they do is because in the end it makes a huge difference. So in my case I have chosen to help people that are already helping others. My act of kindness made a difference because now four troops I supported get pillows for there comfort during there rough times in Afghanistan.

Noel's Pay it forward

Part One

The movie pay it forward is an good inspiration to everyone, Pay it forward means making a difference in the world. It doesn't matter if its not that big
It will also help you realize that the bad things that you have been doing needs to stop, otherwise it will all get worse. Paying it forward means that if you help one person then that person will help 3 more people and it will keep on multiplying and multiplying.

Part Two





My Pay it forward act of kindness was putting cards in people's mailboxes and after I went to put cards into some random cars and after that I went to my backlane to pick up garbage. I only put one picture each act of kindness because the other picture was really ugly and blurry. I did all of my act of kindness yesterday thats why I didn't go to school yesterday. I had no one to go with and my group went to do their activity when i had provincials so i had to do it by myself.


Part Three

My act of kindness went really well because i took my time to do each of it and i had lots of time to do it.It felt really good when you do something good you just get this feeling and it feels good.people didn't really saw me doing my act of kindness only my brother and my mom because when i did all of that no one saw me . I would ask them to pay it forward but no one saw me doing it .
Today I went with justin and riemer to salvation army to donate clothes and just check outjustin's blog.

Part Four

The Idea of pay it forward is really important because lots of people are doing so much bad things these days and when you pay it forward the people you helped will help another person untill everyone do so much good things instead of bad things. I think my act of kindness will make a difference soon but not yet because I just did it yesterday, It will take time for people to help someone or to change.

Argie's Pay It Forward

Part 1
I think pay it forward means sometimes if you do something for others they will repay you buy helping another person and the chain will never stop. Those three words can mean many things when you use them to the fullest. Don't just say them if someone drops a pencil, you pick it up and say pay it forward, your just saying it as a joke. But when you actually help someone with a big thing, you can say it or not. Most of the time people don't say it to doctors or nurses, because they help us when its needed the most.

Part 2
We had a big group, the members of this group is, me, Emmanuel, Jeric, Josh, John, Aldrine and Alvin. First we stayed after practice to help Mosis and Sunny clean up the school. We Swept the hall way, the gym, cleaned the change rooms, and more. Also, the rest of the group went to the soup kitchen, my Mother wouldn't allow me to go because she thought i was going to get the H1N1 virus. I missed it and i wished i didn't. They told me how fun it was to help.

Part 3
I think that helping the janitors was allot of fun. They were really fun to work with. Mosis told me a couple of jokes on the way. They didn't really need allot of help, but when we helped them, we made sure we did a good job.

I felt that doing a good deed and getting nothing in return was really good, because most people don't realize but the people that we help do allot more too help others. Most people don't even take the time to say thank you when someone did something nice to them.

When we asked to help the janitors they seemed really surprised. I guess they have never actually got asked from a student for help. I think that they think Sargent is a place for really nice, caring, and giving students.

We didn't ask them to pay it forward because they do so much for the school as it is. Telling them to pay it forward would be too much, because they put in so much effort to clean and take care of the school.

They reacted by saying things like are you kidding. When we told them we weren't they thought we were just a few students trying to do good things for the school, and its people.

Part 4
I think the idea of pay it forward is important because its always good to help others, knowing your not getting something in return, because most of the time the people that you help are really good.
I think our act of kindness changed the janitors, because they think o us students as caring, giving, and respectful kids now.

THERE WERE NO PICTURES BECAUSE A VIDEO WILL BE PROVIDED AT THE END.

Binesi's Pay it Forward

Pay it Forward




Part 1
Pay it forward is a movie about a young boy named Trevor who wants to make a difference. He brings homeless people into his home, tries to help his teacher find love, and get rid of his mother's alcoholism. He really does make his mark on the world, but like every great human being, he must die. While trying to rescue his friend from a group of bullies he is then stabbed. After the world hears of his dead (through a news report), his idea of "Paying it Forward" is thrust upon the rest of civilization to fulfill. Random acts of Kindness are reported all overart 1
America is reported. He may not have solved the world's problems, he did change a few lives along the way.


Part 2
My group (Elaine, Mary Jane, Faye, and I) decided we would sell bracelets. We weren't sure what the money should go towards until we came upon a Gift of Hope catalogue. We were leafing through when we came across a certain gift. I looked at it, it was to get a whole entire community in Africa immunized against polio. What's polio? You might be wondering, it is a disease that attacks your nervous system. We sold the bracelets at the book fair on Thursday night and all day Friday.





Part 3

We were really nervous at first, I guess the thought of no one buying anything was on all of our minds (considering afterwards we all took a deep sigh of relief). It was very succesful and we raised over $175. The extra money we put into the Pennies from Heaven jar at school. We were very successful in the end and people's reactions weren't all that amazing. Although one woman bought an extra one claiming to her impatient husband that the money went towards charity. We didn't really ask anyone to Pay it forward because we had a sign that said so. I think they sort of already did pay it forward by buying the bracelets in the first place.

Part 4

The concept of "Paying it Forward" is very important. It teaches both young and old that random acts of kindness help to mould our society into a better place. I really do think that our act of kindness is making a difference. I was in disbelief that only $175 about the amount of a week's grocceries, could make such a difference. I really hope that our vaccinations help a few families in poverty stay healthy.

Thank you to Sharmaine and Jerick Reyes who were there all Friday. As well as Noelle Cuvos who came for almost all of Friday. Carla Lacson for the pictures and all the teachers who bought a lot of our bracelets.

Pay it forward!

Kenneth's Pay It Forward

Part 1
In the movie called "Pay It Forward", Paying it forward means that if you help one person then that person will help 3 more people and it will keep on multiplying and multiplying. In that movie Trevor wanted to change the world by helping one person, Jerry. Jerry wanted to make up for what Trevor did for him and he wanted to fix Trevor's truck and he payed it forward. Well same for me and everyone else in my group!
For what pay it forward means to me is that putting bags or envelops filled with candy inside mailboxes is that when people from their homes look inside their mailboxes then they will think that it was from me and my friends who did this with me and from the Sargent park, it's like in that movie when someone makes a good deed that people are willing to make a change,and it's also helping others too because if you can't help them then you will feel very guilty inside. It's not always about you but for others also! So get out of your tiny little box of things that don't concern other people and start helping others get a smile ^^!

Part 2
Me, Devin,Ronny, and Alex were putting candy and chocolate inside bags. We put them inside mailboxes so that if a person checks inside a mailbox for "mail" then there shall be candy wrapped inside a bag along with the mail. But first we had to put the candy inside the bag "OUTSIDE!" which was freezing and almost felt like 30 degrees outside and after that we went to peoples homes and put them inside their mailboxes. We started this yesterday right after school.

Part 3
I don't actually know if we made a difference when we put our bags in mailboxes but i hope that it will give them a happy face. While we were doing this, it gave me a smile inside.

Part 4
Pay It Forward means that you help someone by giving them a present or anything that will make them happy because hardly anyone gives out things to others so I'll say that i will give them a card and that you will pay it forward to someone else, but if you give them a smile then your happy inside to, that means you have payed it forward. that's what i think ^^, so um everyone please pay it forward

Mary Jane's Pay it Forward

Part One: What is "Pay it Forward"?

It is important to pay it forward because it just doesn't make a difference on the person you helped but rather the whole world.

Jennifer's Pay It Forward . (:


Part 1 -


The movie "Pay it Forward" taught me many things . Something small can turn into something huge . It's probably one of the best movies i've ever watched . It gives inspirations to adults
and children . I mean , look at the child (Trevor) who started pay it forward .
He was only 11 ! He's some what a hero . He affected alot of people with just helping three people , then they helped three people , and so on (aka , Paying it Forward).
My favourite part of this movie was the very end . Not the part where he gets stabbed ,
but the part when everyone came t0 his mother's house with flowers and candles .
To me , that was the saddest part , and I saw many people just tearing a bit .
Part 2 -


Our Pay it Forward act of kindness ? Well , Keanna and I went to The Forks .
It was packed there . We handed out candy canes and cards that encouraged people to Pay it Forward . We chose this activity mainly because it's a place we can have fun ,
and we can socialize with random strangers . We didn't necessarily help a 'group' of people .
but i do think we helped people that were having a bad day. We did our act of kindness on Sunday afternoon (December 6 , 2009)

Part 3 -


Personally , I think our act of kindness went very well . Every person we gave a candy cane and card to , they smiled, and said thank you . I felt good about giving random strangers cards and a candy cane . People reacted to our act of kindness , with smiles , questions , suprised faces too ! We wrote in all of the cards for people to pay it forward , and hopefully they did .
There was one couple though . They made us smile the most , mainly because they actually socialized with us , and the man was a painter/artist , and he said he would be happy to donate something to our school , if ever needed .



Part 4 -


The idea of "Pay it Forward" is important , because it teaches us to think about
others for a change and not just ourselves . It also teaches us that there are people
in this world who are unfortunate , and even just making someone's day is important ! Hopefully , our act of kindness has made a difference in people , and help them too !

Owen's Pay it Forward

Pay it Forward

___________________________________________________

Part 1

The movie "Pay it Forward" really meant something to me a lot because it inspired me to wash the dishes every second night and clean my room every Saturday. This movie will teach a lot of things that is good for you and for others around you. Anyone could make a little difference on the world and the people in it.




__________________________________________________

Part 2




My Pay it Forward act of kindness was washing the dishes every second night of the week and cleaning my room every Saturday. I did it because it is the only thing I could do for my parents. I started to do my act of kindness two weks ago.




__________________________________________________

Part 3

My act of kindness went great. I felt great and happy of the things I have done for the last two and a half weeks. My parent reacted with a smile on their faces. I did'nt ask them to pay it forward because I did'nt have to.




___________________________________________________
Part 4




The idea of " Pay it Forward " is important because it teaches us how to do things that are good for us and it also teaches us about the world around us. I think my act of kindness did'nt really made a difference on the world around me.

Darlene's Pay It Forward

Part 1

The movie is a really good inspiration for a lot of people. It will teach you a lot of things that are good for you. It will also help you realize that the bad things that you have been doing needs to stop, otherwise it will all get worse. It will teach you that bullying is not a good sign and it will lead to a miserable life. Children you are bullied, mostly starts to hate how life goes for them. They will start acting different and most of them will cut themselves because they are not happy about the things that has been going on in their life. By watching the movie, it will put a lot of sense into you and it will help you a lot.

Part 2
My friends, Vanessa, Charis, Ammorn and I decided to give out Christmas cards and candy canes to the people who were outside walking. We started going to random people around the street and started giving them candy canes and a Christmas card. Our act of kindness was done during our lunch hour.

Part 3
Vanessa, Charis, Ammorn and I went outside for lunch. We started delivering candy canes and Christmas cards to the people we saw walking on the street. Giving out candy canes and Christmas cards was a lot of fun for all of us. I felt really great giving those things out to the people around the street. I'd like to do this act of kindness once again to have a good time! When we were giving them out, most of the people were really surprised. I had no clue what they were thinking, but I hope it was something good because I saw them smiling afterwards. The Christmas cards had each letter of "Pay It Forward" on them, and when we were handing them out, they looked a little confused of what paying it forward meant. So, we told them that it is about showing an act of kindness, and then they started to smile and we were happy to be able to put a smile on people's faces.

Part 4

"Pay It Forward" is a very important thing for all of us. It will make a difference throughout the whole world. Many people out there have a hard time trying to survive, and I'm pretty sure we can help them out by donating. We can help donate food, gently used clothing, toys and a lot of other things! I hope that we made a difference to the people's lives and I hope that they themselves pay it forward as well !

faye Pay It Forward

Part One

After watching this movie, it made me relize what such a little thing could do to make other people happy, it seems so much easier then I thought, and an act of kindness can be done in many different ways. This movie made me want to start doing more things, even after the project to help way more people, and to be a better person. I enjoyed it very much, and it wasn't hard at all, it was pretty fun, especially working with friends.

Part Two

The group I was in already did help people in Africa to get immunized against polio, I had a freat time making the bracelets with Binesi, Elaine, and MaryJane, and Elaine a lot of people helped, we would love to thank them for helping, and paying it foward, we got a spot in the library, it made it so much easiler, sinc ewe were doing it during the book fair. Parents, young students, and along with the teachers also baught the bracelets and donated money, we made over 175 dollars in 2 days and we had fun doing it, it made us feel really great. I'm also going to be giving tons of pants and stuff people would need for winter to keep warm. The group is going to be raising more money by making foam snowman and putting a little candy canes on them, and we would be giving the money to the Salvation Army.

Part Three

Well we were really nervous at the beginning, we didn't think we would make anything at all, but we made 175 dollars in 2 days, we were happy about tha. It made us feel really happy that we were going to be helping others. The people that baught them had smiles on their faces, i'm so happy they read our sign, because it was a lot of help, reason we didn't tell rarely anyone to pay it forward by donating. Im really happy with the partners I got.











Part four

This idea of act of kindness is important because the money goes to Africa to help a disease called Polio, but its especially great, because just 175 dollars helps a whole community.
I am sure it made a difference, because we definitly feel great about it, we are proud of ourselves to acomplish something this good, it's good to do this kind of thing when it also feels great doing it, it's not as hard as we might of thought. So many accomplishments by just giving a little money.

Layton's Pay It Forward

Part 1


What pay it forward means to me is, insted of paying somone back for something they do to you, you pay it forward too somone thats needs it. To pay it forward means to pass a favor on and change someones life and they will change somopne elses and so on. paying it forward means to change one persons life at a time and about changing the world.



Part 2


For our pay it forward assignment we went to the salvation army and donated clothes. After that we went to Polo Park and handed out 75 holiday cards to random strangers. We chose to do that because we wanted to do more than 1 thing and we were happy to do two. I help by makeing the christmas cards and i broght cloths to donate. We did our act of kindness on thursday because that was the only day free.



Part 3


Are act of kindness went realy well becacuse there was alot of nice people in to the holiday spirit exept for some people were realy mean they would look right at us then just walk right past.
after we were done i felt realy good that we did somthing nice for other people. Some people were realy nice and very thankful but some people were very mean and disrespectful. When we gave each person the card we said to pay it forward. They said i would love to and stuff like for sure but some people said maby.



Part 4


I think that paying it forward is realy important because if we can change the world life will be better for everyone in the world. I think are pay it forward made a diffrent because i think that when people saw are acts of kindess they thought about how nice that is and mabny they sould do it.


Brendan Sawit's Pay It Forward

Part 1


I think that Pay it Forward means to help someone do something that they can't do alone. Then that person helps other people do things they can't do alone because they know how it feels to be helped. Pay it Forward kind of acts like a train, he kindness goes to person to person and so on. There are many ways to Pay it Forward. One way is to do some community service. Community service can be helping clean up a place to spending time at the old folk's home. Paying it forward makes someone's job easier and it makes them a bit happier.


Part 2
- My groups Pay it Forward act of kindness was donating clothes to the Salvation Army and giving out cards at Polo Park to brighten up someone's day.
- My group and I chose these activities because Winter is coming and the people at the Salvation Army might need a couple extra articles of clothing to keep them warm. We all have those times where we're really bored, so we wanted to give the people at the mall something to smile about.
- We helped the people at the Salvation Army by giving them clothes to keep them warm.
- We did our act of kindness at night because a lot of people were tired because it could've been a bad day and our cards could've gave them a smile.

Part 3

Our act of kindness went very well. The lady at the Salvation Army were surprised that four young boys had the heart to make the effort to go to the Salvation Army and donate their clothes. We felt great knowing that many people appreciate our cards and clothes. The people reacted really well, they said thanks and wished us Happy Holidays as well. We did not ask the people to pay it forward because they were usually busy helping customers and looking through merchandise and probably would not take it seriously if we did.

Part 4

The idea of Pay it Forward is important because it is easy and effective. Our act of kindness made a difference by giving the people at the Salvation Army a couple of layers to keep them warm this Winter.

Jex Pay it Forward





Part 1
Pay it forward showed me lots of things and can make a life very different. When Trevor got a homeless man and brought the homeless man in house and feeded him, let him take a bath and stay at his home for shelter. That showed me that he cared for someone that he saw and didn't have a life to enjoy. Pay it forward also thought me how to be a better person. How? Well he changed the world. He made lots of good decisions. He tried to fix everything that was wrong to him and when people get mad at him he still comes back and try to fix the problem. The ending of the movie was the sad part and it showed me how everyone that knows and doesn't know Trevor came to his house and they knew that he changed something.
Part 2




For our active kindness Brayden and I decided to donate anything that we didn't need to Salvation Army. We donated clothes, toys and many other things that we didn't need . We chose this as our active kindness because we wanted to help the less fortunate and get rid our things that we didn't need donated instead of throwing it out.

I also bought pillows for the troops in Afghanistan in JS furniture where they sell it . I chose this because I wanted to help the troops because they worked so hard for Canada for making peace in Afghanistan and for fighting for us and sacrificing their lives for Canada. I also want to thank the troops for what they've done for us.

Part 3


When Brayden and I went to Salvation Army right after school of Wednesday we had no idea where to put our stuff in. So we asked a person who was working there and she told us to put our stuff in a huge pile. I was very please that lots of people donated things to. After we donated our stuff I felt very good that we donated stuff and happy. When people in Salvation Army saw us they were so happy that were contributing to the people who are less fortunate. I didn't ask the person to pay it forward because I know that they will sell for a low price or give them away our things to the less fortunate because they already paid it forward.

When I went to JS furniture I was so excited to buy a pillow to the troops. So when they told us that the pillow was small. I didn't really care because I gave that pillow to a soldier and they will love the pillow for sure. When the person who was working there asked that if I have any family member or knew someone there. I responded no. I said I just wanted to help the troops and make sure they get what they need. I asked them to pay it forward and the person reacted OK we will make sure that the troops will pay it forward to someone else.

Part 4

The idea of pay it forward is very helpful and important because it can make a difference to anywhere whether is in your community or around the world. We often do stuff that are very simple and easy and complain about them but it's not that hard. Compare that to other people who are living in pain and that are homeless. Imagine that if it was us or anybody you know. I just hope our act of kindness just can make a big difference to someone and likes what we gave them and I hope they pay it forward too.
