Wow, I love this! The key is to consistently develop the students social emotional skills, which should be the main focus in the classroom. How else are children going to thrive if we are not catering to such vital skills. Children need to learn positive and effective ways to express the emotions they are feeling which does have an impact on their other areas of development. Thank you for sharing, much more success to the teachers and schools that hone in on students social emotional development first!!!!
Yeah! This video makes me happy to see that teachers still take the time to do what's really important with their students. Using time this way is like money in the bank - an investment.
Mike Dolan I agree. I am totally amazed and happy with what those teachers are doing. I will all teachers could do that. Those kids are blessed to have those teachers.
Hopefully it will change to more like this in the future. I’m currently in college studying human development and we are doing interactive things still. As a preschool teacher i like how they are still do some play activities too not just siting in the desk.
This is Gold! Amazing teaching going on in America.
I love this! I’m excited to incorporate this into my school.
Great way to start the day, love the interaction!!!!
This is a great tape . gratitude on behalf of reorganization
do u have any videos on esl from 6th , 7th and 8th grade???
How many minutes do you usually spend every day for morning meetings for 3rd grade?
Is there a book or training you can recommend? I love the Morning Meeting Handbook by Roxanne Kriete (looks like that's what you're doing) and I'm trying to get my school to adopt this practice. Would love to be able to suggest a workshop the teachers could go to to learn!
You can read all our videos and articles about this school here: www.edutopia.org/school/symonds-elementary-school. There are many practices outlined in these resources, including more morning meeting activities/strategies.
Where can I find out the name and objective of the game where multiple kids were tossing the stuffed animals while in a circle?
The activity is called Group Juggle. You can read more about it in this article: www.edutopia.org/practice/morning-meetings-creating-safe-space-learning
If they can not speak English because they are kids , could they use their native language???
Really struggling with a particularly aggressive group of students this year, and students are trying to figure things out since the loss of the content teacher two weeks ago.. I'm hopeful that integrating some of these suggestions will help build a more cooperative environment
What a beautiful video. Thank you!
Love this!
I'd love to gather ideas for the community building activities including team building and problem solving. Any leads are helpful in regards to places I can find good ideas.
