You Determine the Culture

Investing time and energy in the first days of school will reap benefits throughout the year. Investing time each morning to connect with your students and build community will save time through the rest of the day. Investing time at the end of each day to reflect will build perspective in your students, which strengthens the influence of your guiding words. All of these small investments ultimately save instructional time by proactively addressing a multitude of the social and emotional needs of your students before they impact the classroom.
