Our Learning Community...
Last week was wonderful welcoming students back from the break! Returning to school after two and a half weeks off can be a transition. Here are some things we are doing to help reignite the energy in our classrooms and create spaces for our students to thrive...
- Reviewing classroom community routines and expectations
- Practicing patience and understanding during the initial days back in the classroom
- Rebuilding and reinvesting in the community with personal and academic goal setting as individuals and as a class
- Leaning into the activities our students love to remind them about the joy of learning together
- Having empathy, paying attention to verbal and non-verbal clues and behaviors of our students so that we can create the best possible conditions for all
