Building relationships are so key in the classroom. Every week we start our day with the highs and lows of our weekend! If there is free time in the day we will play two truths and a lie. I also will just talk to students throughout the day and ask them how their sports game went, on Fridays we share if anything fun is going on during the weekend. Having those relationships built early is so important because it makes it so much easier to talk to them later in the year if something is going on and you have that trust built up with them!
One fun thing I like doing to is, if I can make it, going to a student's game over the weekend, seeing their face light up is priceless!
