What’s a safe learning environment?
Students feel comfortable enough to participate and get involved in class activities.
Students feel motivated to learn.
Students feel confident enough to give their best.

Making Connections
Start building connections on the first day!
Get to know them and let them get to know you.
Show them you care!

Clear Rules and Expectations
Few, but clear rules!
Talk to your students and listen to them!
Shouting doesn’t make you a teacher.

OUR Class, not a Class!
If one succeeds, we ALL succeed!
Collaboration
It helps build self-esteem
It helps develop responsibility

Don’t be afraid to have fun in class!
We can learn and have fun at the same time!
