004. Hello Teacher friends! I hope everyone is doing well and we are all in great spirits! Today is "Wonderful Wednesday" and to say thank you for all your kind comments on all my social media posts, videos, tutorials and joke of the day. Here is a template I created to start my morning or afternoon classes with. Place news, reminders, any housekeeping mentions that are important here on this graphic. As we are heading back to school not sure if you will be doing it online or in brick and n mortar, many of our students have been through emotional trauma in some way or another since we went on lock down in March. Due to this I am implementing many SELs (Social emotional Learning) prompts inside all my classes. At the start you will see the emojis on this announcement. And below my email address. I am going to let students know to check in with my privately in chat box or via email how they are doing and if not good...let's talk! If you use Pear Deck many features are available to help you reach your students emotional well being. There is also this website: https://www.mentimeter.com/ which many teachers have recommended using as well. How ever you choose to reach out to your students, whether email, chatbox, pear deck or mentimeter, I do know that this will foster a better classroom community when students know that they are being heard and their needs addressed. Have a great week!. Stay Safe.
