Where your readers and writers encourage and uplift one another, and not just during your literacy block. But all throughout the day.
Wouldn’t it be nice to hear learners complimenting each other on their reading, writing, math, in the hallways, at recess, at specials, at lunch, or waiting for the bus. What if using encouraging words or complimenting their peers was just a way of life in your literacy classroom or homeschool.
Well…it certainly can be but first it has to be an expectation or community agreement. You’ve got to get that buy in and explain the WHY and the positive impact it’s going to have on each individual student and also the entire class.
Once it’s on the list of community agreements, now you’re ready to start teaching, modeling, and practicing what it really means to be an All-Star Encourager in your classroom or homeschool. And that’s exactly what we’re going to talk about in today’s show.
I have FOUR key steps to help you incorporate more opportunities for your learners to compliment and encourage each other during reading and writing time and of course… all day long.
In this Episode, we will chat about:
3 different examples of stories you could share with their learners to emphasize how simple words of encouragement can change perspectives and uplift spirits, fostering a positive classroom environment.
