I was placed in a fifth-grade class where gossiping happened every day whether it is true or not. What we did was apply a positive box in the back of the room and anytime the students had a positive statement about someone they would write it down and put it in the box. At the end of the day or week we would pass out the nice positive comments that other students thought of them. This simply got rid of our gossiping and turned it into a light for kindness in our classroom. The students loved receiving and giving nice comments to their classmates.
