Our school is talking a lot about this topic of building relationships this year…with respect to the research regarding trauma and adverse childhood experiences. Developing these relationships has been a struggle for me…within the confines of our curricular and delivery mandates (teach in small group rotations .. direct instruction, independent (computer practice), collaborative activities. It has been difficult to not let the timer run the classroom! I finally began to be braver about making my own structural decisions…but now I share students with a learning support teacher, who has her own requirements pertaining to IEP instruction…and we are back to the timer. 🙁
Looking forward to learning how to help my students learn and grow…and appreciate the journey.
