https://padlet.com/chloechvojcsek/pngxche49mifwd0r Over the past year, students have been in isolation because of the pandemic. Due to isolation students have had to cut off many social ties with close friends from school. Now with school starting again, and many students going back in person they're having to re-kindle their previous friendships. With students back in a classroom setting friendships are an important part of their everyday experiences and many need help on how to generate new friendships but also how to be respectful, trustworthy, and honest towards others. en-us 2021-09-05 22:03:16 UTC 2021-09-06 02:31:32 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.net/icons/png/1f91d.png chloechvojcsek https://padlet.com/chloechvojcsek/pngxche49mifwd0r/wish/1717829129 Students will create a salad that is a collection of traits that each student will demonstrate within friendships throughout the year.  Students will brainstorm a trait with a partner that they'll demonstrate within a friendship and present that trait on a piece of the classroom's salad.  The trait will be displayed on a part of a salad ingredient which the students will create out of construction paper.  Once everyone has a piece of the salad everyone will paste them onto a bowl that the teacher printed out on a poster board.  The classroom salad will be displayed for the whole year allowing students to look back on it and reflect.

The hula hoops will be set out vertically in the order of a stoplight and placed in the gym. They will be spaced out and clearly visible for the students to see. The teacher will talk about a scenario in regards to friendship and the students will have to decide whether it is a good sign, a warning sign, or a bad sign. The teacher will instruct students how to get to the hula hoop, such as skip or hop. Once students decide on what sign the scenario fits in they will move towards the corresponding hula hoop. After everyone has moved to a hula hoop the class will come together and discuss what the scenario was and reflect on the hula hoop they chose.  Repeat with different scenarios and have students demonstrate different forms of movement each round.
