Create a tangled web activity

While sitting in a circle together as a class, the teacher shares a thing they enjoy (or whatever you want to discuss). If anyone else shares that interest, they raise their hand and the yarn is tossed to them (still hold onto the other end). That next student should hold on to the end of the yarn and share something new about him/herself. Continue sharing and passing the ball of yarn to another student across the circle. Soon, you’ll have created a tangled web of shared experiences.

I am good at getting to know students as I feel like I almost become a family member as I seek to know about them and become invested in their success. I have conversations with them, joke with them, do some of the Tik tok dances/ trends. I do need to work on creating boundaries during non instructional time and also I tend to have students who want to give hugs and touch my things. I am learning and each year I work on it.
