We are officially in that part of the year where the newness of the school year has worn off and we are settling into our routines. With that being said, we have started digging in and developing our classroom culture before tackling our mentor/mentee pairing. Before pairing begins we established class expectations specific to each class outlining what they expect from themselves, from each other, and from myself. We outlined the things that we need to be successful in our individual roles (as seen below) and introduced the foundation of all of our lessons- Social Emotional Learning!
The kids split up into 5 different groups based off of the domains and came up with creative ways to define each one and use real life examples. This was a fun exercise as it got the students up and moving to interact with different students from other tables and each one of them had a role in the presentation of each poster. Some of them got really creative with it, I'm excited to decorate my room with their new posters!
Until Next week,
Ms. C
