Parent participation can take many forms based on comfort levels, school and classroom needs, and families' schedules, but any level of involvement strengthens the parent-school connection, reinforces students’ sense of support, and provides assistance to teachers and the school.

By fostering a growth mindset in our students, we help them stretch their abilities, adopt more effective learning strategies, and actively seek out opportunities to grow.
Integrating self-assessment into daily schoolwork supports academic growth by helping students reflect on their work and recognize areas for improvement.
Happy International Women's Day!
Happy #SELday from @responsiveclass and @FlyFiveSEL! 🎉 Social-emotional learning and academics go hand in hand to help students thrive—today and every day.
Research tells us that when students are taught social-emotional skills their academic performance noticeably improves. That’s why the first principle of the Responsive Classroom approach is “Teaching social and emotional skills is just as important as teaching academic content."
Responsive Classroom strategies, such as student sharing, create opportunities for students to express themselves and learn about their peers, fostering positive cultural connections and deeper understanding.

At times, it may seem like we're not reaching our students, but it's important to remember that social-emotional growth is a gradual process. By maintaining consistent structure and support, we're cultivating and nurturing the seeds of their development.
While February shines a spotlight on Black history, its actual impact is when we carry its lessons forward all year. Read more about making Black History Month a year-round celebration of learning and growth: bit.ly/3Eo8Og0
Music, art, and PE teachers play a crucial role in nurturing responsible, kind learners. Check out the Special Area Teachers one-day workshop to learn practices that can be tailored to the unique challenges of special area settings. View the schedule here: bit.ly/40Lrj5L
Morning Meeting is a perfect time to keep the excitement of science alive in the classroom. By incorporating play—the primary way children explore and learn about the world—we give them a chance to reflect on their science lessons and practice their investigative skills.
Offering meaningful choices during lessons boosts learning and fosters a sense of ownership and motivation in the classroom. Learn more about academic choice here: bit.ly/3E59Z3P

Students benefit from both organized games and free play during recess. However, students taught specific social skills for recess will be better prepared for the challenges that can arise during playtime. Check out this Quick Coaching Guide to learn more: bit.ly/42lARGK
