We talk about our weekends every Monday. Share a “happy” and a “crappy”

1. Strategy- Greeting students at the door
2. 2x10 check ins

Time!
Different backgrounds/socioeconomic backgrounds of students

At the beginning of the year, each student wrote down a goal for growth in orchestra. I think it'd be meaningful to counter that with a positive affirmation encouraging them in their growth toward their goal.

Number of students! I feel like all of these resources are great, but not easily done in classes as large as mine. It's really gotten me thinking about how I can be intentional about reaching everyone in my classes.

TIME!

1. Positive affirmations – something as small as a sticky note on their stand when they come into my room.
2. Team building activities – I feel like these could be done in a larger group.

Class meetings, lots of front loading about feelings, thoughts about things, ice breakers to learn about each other.

I like the head, heart, happy activity!

# data[].attributes.body
I already created classroom expectations but after the long weekend I want to show my kids what they came up with and have a "reset" .

# data[].attributes.body
As kids are coming into the class, spend a few minutes going around to 3 kids a day and ask them a specific question about their weekend or an interest they have.

1. 2x10 check in

Continue celebrating successes together

Try the talking to 1 kid for 2 minutes a day for a week

Try the head, heart, and happy idea

# data[].attributes.body
Continued work with class meetings is meaningful. It gives the kids a chance to share and contribute to the class discussions.

Check ins, ice breaker games, being intentional about student groups

Consistent communication with students, always follow up with them and take time to get to know them outside of school.

# data[].attributes.body
I plan to make more connections with my learners through meaningful, non-academic conversations.

# data[].attributes.body
1. Appointment Clocks for grouping
2. Get-To-Know-You Google Form

# data[].attributes.body
Always greet your students and take time daily to make sure they are doing ok. This can be done by pulling students aside for a couple minutes everyday to ask about their day.

Different experiences growing up, language barrier etc.

Time
Lack of Interest in Connection

# data[].attributes.body
On Mondays, I like to ask kids what they did over the weekend and ask questions about what they did over the weekend. During the week, I ask kids how their sporting events, performances, or work went the night before. Genuinely being interested and not just doing it to do it.

I plan to make connections by having conversations not related to school at all.

I plan to use the 2 x 10 rule both with (1) learners and (2) parents.

I may find it difficult to work in 2 x 10's and reach the 10 day goal.

PBIS Baron Bucks for being responsible, respectful, or safe.

Time constraints are definitely a thing, but I do agree that the loss of time is worth it to build a community. Also getting past the awkwardness and uncomfortableness of silence could be tough.

# data[].attributes.body
I will make 2 positive phone calls home.
I will pose some “would you rather” questions.

# data[].attributes.body
Focus on 1-2 students each day and get to know them.
