During the first week of class I intend on conducting games with the students to get to know them better. Establishing a strong community is something that is important in order for every student to be successful. Learning about each other's backgrounds will be one of the areas that I work on with the students. I want the students to come to class with an open opportunity to learn about their classmates and what similarities and differences there may be between them all.
We will have weekly meetings to allow the students to ask questions and to get to know one another better. I intend on holding these meetings prior to class on Monday. I anticipate that this will give us an opportunity to clarify any concerns and to gain a better understanding of each other's knowledge and to start the Monday off on a positive note!
The class will also have a student of the week. This will give an opportunity for each student to share their personal interests with the class. We will interview them asking their school goals and some personal goals that they have. The student of the week can be accessed on our website on the Home page under Student of the Week.
Ongoing development will be going on in the classroom to ensure that everyone is learning and feels comfortable.
