Easy Tips to Boost Student Participation (& Building Classroom Community!)
Imagine If you could increase student participation & build classroom community… at the same time.
Sounds lovely, doesn’t it?
So often, teachers focus on teaching the content that our curriculum requires, but we often forget a very important core element of teaching.
Relationships.
Students learn best when they have a genuine relationship with their teacher and their classmate. If we fail to set that foundation, we are passing up incredible opportunities for learning and growth in our classroom.
Imagine with me.
You are working on teaching a new concept with your students and instead of having the same three students engaging in your classroom discussions, you have nearly the entire class interacting with one another. And, as a bi-product of that student participation, you begin building a stronger classroom community.
This learning utopia is within reach. Trust me.
Let me share several strategies to help you increase student participation so that you can reap the benefits it will provide for your classroom.
And, as a bonus: you may just become the coolest teacher ever!
